# Dedicated Server
The dedicated server is a version of Minecraft: Pi Edition modified to run in a headless environment. It loads settings from a ``server.properties`` file.
This server is also compatible with MCPE Alpha v0.6.1.
## Setup
### Debian Package
To use, install and run ``minecraft-pi-reborn-server``. It will generate the world and ``server.properties`` in the current directory.
## Server Limitations
* Player data is not saved because of limitations with MCPE LAN worlds
* An easy workaround is to place your inventory in a chest before logging off
* Survival Mode servers are incompatible with unmodded MCPI
## Arguments
### ``--only-generate``
If you run the server with ``--only-generate``, it will immediately exit once world generation has completed. This is mainly used for automatically testing MCPI-Reborn.
