Enabling experimental features on a Minecraft Bedrock server allows server administrators and players to explore and test upcoming features, enhancements, and modifications before their official release. This option provides a valuable opportunity to preview new functionalities, offer feedback, and contribute to the development process. However, it is essential to use this feature with caution as experimental elements may still contain unresolved issues or bugs that could potentially affect the gameplay experience.
Note: Enabling experimental features turns off achievements. Experiments can be unstable and may cause world corruption, lag, or server faults. Use with caution.
