That's not a dumb question.
1 Open minetest folder
2 Open minetest.conf
+ You may use a gedit or WordPad

Sifri is the man!

Search "superflat" and you will find it. Great mod, can make many type of flat world.

Or if you're not too bothered about the type of flat world, you can just put mg_flags = flat into minetest.conf.

If you want the flattest world you can make using minetest's settings, here is what you put in your minetest.conf:

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

mg_flags = flat, notrees, nocaves, nodungeons


Any options for minetest.conf can be found in minetest.conf.example

AFAIK there is no way to turn off plants. (like cacti, grass, flowers, etc...)

Soo, if I want one of my worlds to be flat, what command thingie would I put into minetest.config? Or does this just make any world I create flat?

Any world you create with this in your minetest.conf will be flat.

You are welcome.
Note that my "superflat" mod does not use per world configuration.
EDIT: Update on my "superflat" mod, now save parameter in your world's folder.

Typo there :D

That only works for new world.
For existing world, edit the map_meta.txt. and it will take effect for ungenerated maps.
For deleting only map data (not the player, auth, banned) delete map.sqlite file.
