Quickstart
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
Welcome in the block sandbox!
|
|
|
|
Blockgames like Minecraft or Minetest give you the ideal playground for creative playing and building just like a real sandbox.
|
|
But other than real sandboxes, you can work on very large worlds together with your friends over the internet.
|
|
And you can use (very simplified) physics, save the progress and many more.
|
|
|
|
But what about learning programming while expressing your creativity? Why not automate things? Or build even greater things?

First lines of code
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
The first lines of code with miney should be the import statement and the creation of the miney object "mt". This will
|
|
connect miney to your already running Minetest.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
import miney
|
|
|
|
mt = miney.Minetest()
|
|
|
|
.. Important::
|
|
|
|
Whenever you see a object "mt" in the documentation, it was created with this line!
