Configuration Options Galore
One of the coolest aspects of dockerizing your Palworld server is the plethora of configuration options at your fingertips. Want to control the speed of time? Adjust the DAY_TIME_SPEED_RATE
and NIGHT_TIME_SPEED_RATE
. Looking to tweak the experience points rate? The EXP_RATE
setting has got you covered.
And there's more! Customize everything from Pal capture rates to the number of cooperative players allowed. The sky's the limit when it comes to tailoring your Palworld experience.
Let's Get Dockerizing!
Here's a simple docker-compose.yml
snippet to start your Palworld server:
version: "3.8"
services:
palworld-server:
image: mbround18/palworld-docker:latest
environment:
PRESET: "casual"
ports:
- "8211:8211"
- "27015:27015"
volumes:
- "./data:/home/steam/palworld"
With this setup, you're just a docker-compose up
away from your Palworld adventure. Customize the environment variables as you see fit to create your perfect game world.
Custom Configuration: Beyond the Presets
While presets are a fantastic way to quickly launch your server, don't forget that you can dive deeper into customization. Modify the docker-compose.yml
to include any specific settings you desire:
environment:
EXP_RATE: "1.5"
Updating Your Server
To update your server settings, simply adjust your docker-compose.yml
file and restart your server. This flexibility ensures your Palworld server can evolve alongside your adventures.
Embarking on your Palworld journey has never been easier. With Docker, you're equipped to launch, customize, and manage your server with unprecedented ease. So gather your Pals, set sail for adventure, and remember: in Palworld, your imagination is the only limit! ππ
