title: Supported Games
This feature is experimental
Why?
The supported/compatible games feature allows mods to specify the games that they work with, which improves user experience.
Support sources
mod.conf
You can use supported_games to specify games that your mod is compatible with.
You can use unsupported_games to specify games that your mod doesn't work with, which is useful for overriding
ContentDB's automatic detection.
Both of these are comma-separated lists of game technical ids. Any _game suffixes are ignored, just like in Minetest.
supported_games = minetest_game, repixture
unsupported_games = lordofthetest, nodecore, whynot
Dependencies
ContentDB will analyse hard dependencies and work out which games a mod supports.
This uses a recursive algorithm that works out whether a dependency can be installed independently, or if it requires a certain game.
Combining all the sources
mod.conf will override anything ContentDB detects.
