## Installation ### Git Capture the flag uses several submodules. Make sure to grab them all by cloning like this: git clone --recursive https://github.com/MT-CTF/capturetheflag.git ### ContentDB Simply download the game with the ingame content browser. Note that this version may be slightly behind the git version, but it will be a little more stable. Note that downloading from ContentDB will probably delete any existing CTF folder downloaded via git, unless you move it out of the Luanti `games` directory first. ## Recommended Setup * [!] You should host your server using the `dummy` backend if it's not in mapedit mode, this will prevent Luanti from writing the map to disk, which speeds up map operations (and general server speed as a result) a lot, especially on HDDs. ### For public servers: * Storing rankings using the `redis` backend, all steps are required: * Install redis, luarocks, and luaredis (Ubuntu) * `sudo apt install luarocks redis` * `sudo luarocks install luaredis` * Add `ctf_rankings` to your `secure.trusted_mods` * Make sure you don't add any malicious mods to your server. **It is possible they can breach the sandbox through `ctf_rankings` when it is a trusted mod** * Run something like this when starting your server: `(cd minetest/worlds/yourworld && redis-server) | ` * If you run your Minetest server using a system service it is recommended to run redis-server on a seperate service, with the Minetest service depending upon it ## Starting a game (GUI instructions) * Create a new `singlenode` world * Turn on `Enable Damage` and `Host Server`, turn off `Creative Mode`, *memorize* your port * Click `Host Game`, a round should automatically start as soon as you join in * Players on your LAN can join using your local IP and the port you *memorize*d. You will have to port forward for other people on the internet to join ## Development * CTF API Docs: Lua API Reference - [Link](docs/ctf-api.md) * If you use Visual Studio Code we recommend these extensions: * https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=sumneko.lua * https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=dwenegar.vscode-luacheck * https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=GreenXenith.minetest-tools ## License Created by [rubenwardy](https://rubenwardy.com/).
