 | |
| ## Installation
 | |
| 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:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| # First, clone the repository
 | |
| git clone https://github.com/sbrl/Minetest-WorldEditAdditions.git WorldEditAdditions
 | |
| cd WorldEditAdditions
 | |
| # Then, checkout the latest release on Linux:
 | |
| git checkout "$(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)";
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| 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:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| git checkout TAG_NAME_HERE
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Troubleshooting
 | |
| If you're experiencing issues with this mod, try checking this FAQ before opening an issue.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### 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.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### I get a crash on startup saying `attempt to call field 'alias_command' (a nil value)`
 | |
| Please update to v1.8+. There was a bug in earlier versions that caused a race condition that sometimes resulted in this crash.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### 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.
