 ===== Servers ===== ===== Servers =====
-Listed are various minetest servers and their web pages concerning AdvTrains. Some do not have much, others have a huge amount. Feel free to add your own server, but ensure a neutral point of view.  +The list below is sorted alphabetically.
- +
-=== 56i-mtwiki === +
-**Note:** Due to the server being forgotten in the UK during 56i's emmigration to the Iberian Peninsula, the server is no longer abailable +
- +
-The wiki of this server grows with the number of buildings; there may be more pages added to this list in just a matter of a month or so. However, the admin is not always online. +
- +
-  * [[http://56i.duckdns.org/56i-mtserver-wiki/#Junctions|Junctions]] - A gentle guide to basic junctions. +
-  * [[http://56i.duckdns.org/56i-mtserver-wiki/#Railway_guide|Railway Guide]] - Concerns the construction of railways across 56i's server, but has advice applicable to you setup. +
-  * [[http://56i.duckdns.org/trainmap.svg|Live Map]] - A schematic of rail lines across the server updated every two minutes. Includes train locations. +
- +
-=== Tunnler's Abyss === +
-Since this server has a smaller web presence than other pages on this list, it may seem smaller than 56i-mtserver. This is the opposite. This server is welcoming, and will likely answer any question you ask them. +
- +
-  * [[https://h2mm.gitlab.io/web/tutorials/advtrains.html|Tutorial]] - Guide on train construction. +
- +
-=== LinuxForks Minetest Server  === +
-**Note** Most of the Linuxforks wiki has been blocked from the general public and an account must be used to access pages. As such, some links may not function.+
  
-This server is the oldest server with AdvTrains. For this reason, it has players with a lot of experience. Please be as polite as possible. First impressions matter a lot on this server.+  * [[https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?t=17465|LinuxForks]]

-  * [[https://wiki.linux-forks.de/mediawiki/index.php/Railway_Styleguide|Railway guide]] - Concerns the construction of railways across the server. +[[https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?p=218381#p218381|The first post on Advtrains on the Minetest forum]] also includes an incomplete list of servers using Advtrains.
-  * [[https://wiki.linux-forks.de/mediawiki/index.php/Category:Transport_system_types|Transport System Types]] - Concerns the transport categories and can be used as inspiration for your own network. +
-  * [[https://notsyncing.net/maps.linux-forks.de/|Map]] - Unlike 56i-mtserver, this map just shows track locations. Brilliant for seeing how turns are done.+
