Minecraft server

Hi everyone,

In every tutorial on how to make a minecraft server they make a start file (start.command on macOS). But where is this for? If you just open the Jar file it does the same. 

I'm asking this because my start.command file on macOS isn't working.

Can someone explain why you need to do this?

Thanks!

IIRC you can pass flags to it like how much memory it can use.

Similar to windows, it you can make a batch file with different parameters. As @lufihengr said, you can increase the server memory which is recommended.

with spigot/bukkit, you cannot do it (i tried before, no work) 

Ryzen 5 3600 stock | 2x16GB C13 3200MHz (AFR) | GTX 760 (Sold the VII)| ASUS Prime X570-P | 6TB WD Gold (128MB Cache, 2017)

Samsung 850 EVO 240 GB 

138 is a good number.

I actually suggest using Spigot instead of the vanilla server but whatever.  You make the script so you can pass flags to the java runtime, this allows you to specify how much RAM the server is allowed to utilise, whether to run it as a command-line application or a full gui application etc.  If you ever get more into Minecraft you'll find that using flags to control the server are very useful.
