|
|
> Unsure how to get started? Check out the [this guide I wrote!](https://tice.tips/containerization/palworld-server-docker/)
|
|
|
|
This is a Docker container to help you get started with hosting your own
|
|
[Palworld](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1623730/Palworld/) dedicated server.
|
|
|
|
This Docker container has been tested and will work on both Linux (Ubuntu/Debian) and Windows 10.
|
|
|
|
> [!IMPORTANT]
|
|
> At the moment, Xbox Gamepass/Xbox Console players will not be able to join a dedicated server.
|
|
>
|
|
> They will need to join players using the invite code and are limited to sessions of 4 players max.

### Game Ports

|
| Port | Info |

## Using RCON
|
|
|
|
RCON is enabled by default for the palworld-server-docker image.
|
|
Opening the RCON CLI is quite easy:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker exec -it palworld-server rcon-cli
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will open a CLI that uses RCON to write commands to the Palworld Server.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Creating a backup
|
|
|
|
To create a backup of the game's save at the current point in time, use the command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker exec palworld-server backup
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will create a backup at `/palworld/backups/`
|
|
|
|
The server will run a save before the backup if rcon is enabled.
|
|
|
|
## Editing Server Settings
|
|
|
|
When the server starts, a `PalWorldSettings.ini` file will be created in the following location: `<mount_folder>/Pal/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/PalWorldSettings.ini`
|
|
|
|
Any changes made there will be applied to the Server on next boot.
|
|
|
|
Please keep in mind that the ENV variables will always overwrite the changes made to `PalWorldSettings.ini`.
|
