Stand-alone headless server

Is it possible to use Love without initialising window and graphics? I.e. to use it as a stand-alone headless server.

Hi and welcome to the forums.

Look at the Config Files article, since you want that; you can specify the following:

t.window = false

Instead of the table stuff.

That will make it run headless.

I think you also need to set love.graphics to false, I had trouble running on Ubuntu server 18.x until I turned that off.

Did you mean to set 'modules.graphics = false'?

Yes I did.
