Getting on the Server List

Why is it so difficult to get your server on the server list..
Mine was on there last night i wake up and its not there..
Any suggestions.. or something i can do to get it on the server list at all times????

I never had Problems with that, but you could try to check your minetest.conf file:

Code: Select all

# collect information about your server to display on serverlist:

#    Name of the server, to be displayed when players join and in the serverlist.
#    type: string
server_name = Big3Force Minetest server

#    Description of server, to be displayed when players join and in the serverlist.
#    type: string
server_description = mine here

#    Domain name of server, to be displayed in the serverlist.
#    type: string
server_address = game.minetest.net

#    Homepage of server, to be displayed in the serverlist.
#    type: string
server_url = https://minetest.net

# Enable public announcing:
#    Automaticaly report to the serverlist.
#    type: bool
# server_announce = true

#    Announce to this serverlist.
#    If you want to announce your ipv6 address, use  serverlist_url = v6.servers.minetest.net.
#    type: string
# serverlist_url = servers.minetest.net

A few other things to check:
- make sure you use a Port forwarding if your server runs inside your network
- make sure Players can join your server, I heard of people who were banned from the serverlist because players needed a password and the server was on public serverlist.

I hope I could help you
