# 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.
