Running command line arguments
Linux
Open up the terminal.
Simply type:
./minetest --server --worldname MyWorld
Or you can make a shell (.sh) file.
Windows
The easiest way to run command line arguments on windows it to make a batch file. Open a plain text editor (for example Notepad, or Notepad++).
Enter your command line arguments in the following format:
minetest.exe --server --worldname MyWorld
And save to startserver.bat in the bin folder, next to minetext.exe
(It doesn't need to be called “startserver”, that was just an example).
Now run it by double clicking your batch file.
