How to enable mining coins on coind?

Hello everyone!

I have forked a PoS and PoW coin and created a altcoin (I'm creating this for learning purposes). After changing the genesis block/merkleroot/time stamps and compiling, it is now working successfully. However, there are zero blocks obviously due to no miners.

Ok now I'm a little confused. I want to get the block chain moving using coind to mine, I do not want to use the GUI wallet.

It seems like the setgenerate command was removed awhile ago, so I'm not really sure how I can mine my coin now with coind. I have tried gen=1 in my coin.conf, though still zero blocks.

Also, if I am correct, there must be at least two nodes running before mining can start, and I should add them with in my config file like:

addnode=(IP of another node), right?

Can someone please fill me in on mining with coind // your own altcoin? Thank you.
