# Gauges
![Preview](https://content.minetest.net/uploads/GBoKauWSou.png)
Gauges for [Minetest](https://www.minetest.net/), a free and open source infinite
world block sandbox game.
[**Forum topic**](https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=10250)
## Installation
### Download the mod
To install Gauges, clone this Git repository into your Minetest's `mods/`
directory:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/minetest-mods/gauges.git
```
You can also
[download a ZIP archive](https://github.com/minetest-mods/gauges/archive/master.zip)
of Gauges.
### Enable the mod
Once you have installed Gauges, you need to enable it in Minetest.
The procedure is as follows:
#### Using the client's main menu
This is the easiest way to enable Gauges when playing in singleplayer
(or on a server hosted from a client).
1. Start Minetest and switch to the **Local Game** tab.
2. Select the world you want to enable Gauges in.
3. Click **Configure**, then enable `gauges` by double-clicking it
(or ticking the **Enabled** checkbox).
4. Save the changes, then start a game on the world you enabled Gauges on.
5. Gauges should now be running on your world.
#### Using a text editor
This is the recommended way to enable the mod on a server without using a GUI.
1. Make sure Minetest is not currently running (otherwise, it will overwrite
the changes when exiting).
2. Open the world's `world.mt` file using a text editor.
3. Add the following line at the end of the file:
```text
load_mod_gauges = true
```
If the line is already present in the file, then replace `false` with `true`
on that line.
4. Save the file, then start a game on the world you enabled Gauges on.
5. Gauges should now be running on your world.
## Version compatibility
Gauges currently supports Minetest 5.0 and later, as well as 0.4.17.
Issues arising in versions older than 5.0 will generally not be fixed.
