**Important News: The `master` branch has been renamed to `main`, to follow the new standard across the Git ecosystem. If you've installed _WorldEditAadditions_ through git, you will need to re-clone the repository.**
_(Do you have a cool build that you used WorldEditAdditions to build? [Get in touch](https://github.com/sbrl/Minetest-WorldEditAdditions/issues/new) and I'll feature your screenshot here!)_
The detailed explanations have moved! Check them out [here](https://worldeditadditions.mooncarrot.space/Reference/) (or edit at [Chat-Command-Reference.md](https://github.com/sbrl/Minetest-WorldEditAdditions/blob/main/Chat-Command-Reference.md)), or click the links below.
You can install _WorldEditAadditions_ in multiple ways:
### Through ContentDB
WorldEditAdditions is on ContentDB here: <https://content.minetest.net/packages/Starbeamrainbowlabs/worldeditadditions/>.
### Through the latest release
You can get a copy of WorldEditAdditions by downloading the source code for the [latest release](https://github.com/sbrl/Minetest-WorldEditAdditions/releases/latest), but this is not recommended because it takes additional effort to update to the latest version.
### Through Git
You can also clone this git repository. Note that the `main` branch is not considered to be stable at all times - though it shouldn't crash. It is recommended that you checkout a release to ensure stability. Do that like so:
If you do not checkout the latest release, you will be using the development version of WorldEditAdditions. While every effort is made to ensure that the development version is stable at all times, this is not a guarantee.
Windows users, you'll need to check the [releases page](https://github.com/sbrl/Minetest-WorldEditAdditions/releases) and find the name of the latest release, then do this instead of the `git checkout` above:

### I get an error saying that worldedit isn't installed
WorldEditAdditions requires that the `worldedit` mod is installed as a dependency. Install it and then try launching Minetest (or the `minetest-server`) again.
### I get an error saying that `worldedit.register_command()` is not a function
This is probably because your version of `worldedit` is too old. Try updating it. Specifically the `worldedit.register_command()` function was only added to `worldedit` in December 2019.
### Why don't the [moretrees](https://content.minetest.net/packages/VanessaE/moretrees/) trees work with `//forest`?
As far as I can tell, the saplings provided by the [`moretrees` mod](https://content.minetest.net/packages/VanessaE/moretrees/) don't properly interact with bonemeal from the [bonemeal mod](https://content.minetest.net/packages/TenPlus1/bonemeal/), which WorldEditAdditions uses to grow trees. As far as I can tell WorldEditAdditions has everything in place needed to support them, but until applying bonemeal to `moretrees` saplings results in a tree rather than waiting for one to grow over time, WorldEditAdditions will always fail to place trees provided by the `moretrees` mod, unfortunately.
This is a limitation of Minetest. You can workaround it though by setting [`active_block_range`](https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/5.6.1/minetest.conf.example#L2868) to a higher value - though be aware this also affects ABMs and other entities as well, so it can cause server lag.
Please also make sure that the logic for every new command has it's own file. For example, the logic for `//floodfill` goes in `worldeditadditions/floodfill.lua`, the logic for `//overlay` goes in `worldeditadditions/overlay.lua`, etc. More contributing help can be found in [the contributing guide](CONTRIBUTING.md).
