Minetest General Help/FAQ

I was looking for the instruction manual basically. I had noted that I did not appear to be able to see very far and was poking around the conf file. Eventually I found this thread.

http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=1054&p=2

Found out the handy way to adjust this was the + and - keystrokes.

Is there a place I can find this information all in one place? If there is, I want to apologize in advance, but I have tried a few abortive searches on the forum and didn't find it. Possibly it is obvious...

Anyhow, much thanks if someone can point me in the general direction. Otherwise I will start hacking things together using the forum and, if anyone is interested, will perhaps try to create a sticky-worthy thread for it all.

The main source of info is the wiki.

The FAQ is here

I started writing a manual but I stopped as there is little point because the wiki is available.

Hehe. I actually found your manual on my own, but the FAQ there is more along the lines of what I needed. Plus the thread itself has a lot of handy random info.

The wiki was the first place I looked, even before these forums. It shows prominently on Google. For whatever reason, I have found it difficult to find info I want on the wiki. Maybe I should just join the wiki and start working with that project.

Primarily, right this minute, I was looking for some detailed info on the conf file. I just found all of that on the wiki and am curious as to how on the face of the Earth I missed it yesterday..... Typo I suppose...

Thanks!
