# 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. To use, install the ``minecraft-pi-reborn-server`` package and run ``minecraft-pi-reborn-server``. It will generate the world and ``server.properties`` in the current directory. This server is also compatible with MCPE Alpha v0.6.1. ## 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 only compatible with ``minecraft-pi-reborn`` clients
