Minetest (now Luanti) is a free, open-source voxel engine with a huge library of Lua mods and game modes. It's light on resources, so a dedicated server is cheap to run and endlessly customisable. This step-by-step guide shows you how to set up a Minetest / Luanti server in minutes — no manual install, no command line.
Pick a plan sized for your Minetest / Luanti community. We recommend about 1–3 GB of RAM; start smaller and upgrade in one click as you add players or mods. Minetest / Luanti plans start at $3.99/mo.
Check out and your Minetest / Luanti server provisions automatically in under 60 seconds, with console access right away — no manual install, no command line.
Once your Minetest / Luanti server is online, copy its address (IP and port) from the panel. Your players pick Join Game and enter the address. Start, stop and restart it anytime from the control panel.
Your Minetest / Luanti server supports Lua mods, Mod packs, Config, FTP/SFTP. Install Luanti with Lua mods straight from the one-click installer, or upload your own from the control panel — then tweak settings in the visual config editor.
Enable scheduled automatic backups, set restart timers, and monitor CPU, RAM and player counts from the dashboard. Always-on DDoS protection and 24/7 support keep your Minetest / Luanti server stable.
