hello people, new here, looking for some quick tips.

I am new to minetest and had a few questions i have been unable to figure out.
1. how do i create a world with a TOTALLY FLAT plane made out of grass or perhaps snow? no trees, no bushes, no flowers. just flat grass or snow as far as the eye can see. I have read a lot about mg_flags=flat or something to that effect but it doesnt seen to work. keep getting "relatively" flat lands but with random caves and trees here and there.
2. how do i pause and set the time of day? ive tried some console commands but it says i dont have server privledge or something. even though i am in creative mode on just a local machine
3. what is the command to add an item to my inventory. wood for example. if i am on a flat grass plane with nothing i suppose i will have to add items through the command line.
4. i have been able to give myself the commands to move fast and fly etc, but sometimes it says i am not allowed. seems sort of random.
if you could tell me how to do these things, and perhaps give example commands that would be fantastic. or if you are a true wizard you could perhaps point me in the direction of a pre made map i could download that already has these settings and features in place.
I basically want to build stuff in minetest. I am getting into making home made wood working stuff, furniture etc. and i couldnt seem to find any good architectural apps that allow for first person viewing from all angles. I figured I could treat each block as one inch and construct giant models of what i am building to get general ideas about the angles of the finished product as well as seeing how i should go about constructing it. using different board types and different types of wood as differnt blocks etc.
anyways. thanks for any hel you are able to give. like i said ive been searching for a bit and what i have been able to find doesnt seem to be working, or download links are long dead.
take care!
