Where is the documentation (if any) for understanding how the game server communicates with the client?
https://github.com/HimbeerserverDE/multiserver Just remembered that this exists. This may help you greatly since someone has already done the protocol work.

Can the server of this game scale horizontally when hosted on Kubernetes?
There's been several attempts to implement software like this in Minetest, the most prominent I know of is https://github.com/HimbeerserverDE/multiserver

Is there any future to Multithreaded Minetest?
Do you know how Minecraft servers solved the problem that MC is mostly single-threaded? They made server networks instead of single servers. There is a lobby from which players can pick on which sub-server they want to play on, and then are automatically redirected without having to reconnect. Will this be possible in Minetest at some point? Yes, and the point is now. There is a fully functional proxy named multiserver that allows for exactly that. The proxy still has quite a few bug and features yet to be implemented, but there are new commits almost every day. I am currently working on the Lua-side software for a server using this technology, it will go online soon (I'm not gonna say the name of this server since I don't want to advertise it, but rather just inform everyone of the latest developments.)
