All lines starting with # are ignored in configuration files.
I would also not advise using the minetest.conf.example file as a configuration base because you do not easily see which settings differ from default (and actually do something) and which settings have no effect because their value is the same as the default.

What exactly do you mean by creative?

If you mean that you only have unlimited items, then enable 'survival' (disable creative) on your server (dunno how you do it on a VPS). After you've done that, join the game from that VPS (If you were running this on your own PC< I would say join from your own PC, but then again, I don't really know how VPS works). Once in the game, type '/grant yourusernamehere all' without quotes and yourusernamehere replaced with the username you used to join the game. Once you've run those commands, type '/giveme itemstring' without quotes and itemstring is the string entry of that item in the Minetest item database.

See this for the Vanilla Minetest game itemStrings: http://wiki.minetest.net/Itemstrings

If you mean that only you can fly, then do the same things as above, and then just press J and K to enable 'fly' and 'fast'.

You can use this code. Just use a init.lua file and copy and paste this in:

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all: minetest.register_chatcommand("spawn", { params = "", description = "Teleport to the spawn location.", privs = {shout=true}, func = function(name, param) local player = minetest.get_player_by_name(name) minetest.chat_send_player(name, "Teleported to spawn!") player:setpos({x=0.0, y=5.0, z=0.0}) return true end, })

Change the corrdinates to where you want the spawn to be.
