PixARK is built on ARK's code but uses different port conventions: Pterodactyl defaults 27015 game, 27016 query, 27017 RCON, 27018 Cube; AMP defaults 7777/27015/27020/14999. The server is a Windows binary, so Linux needs Wine plus Xvfb; install with SteamCMD appid 824360.

Server notes

Server depends on Wine (WINEARCH=win64 + vcrun2019 + dotnet6 + Xvfb). Cube port carries voxel world data; missing it lets players connect but terrain won't load. Pterodactyl and AMP use different default ports; actual ports are set by startup flags.
