Hytale Server Docker

This repository contains a Docker setup for running a Hytale Server.

Quick Start

1. Start the Server:

   docker run -d --name hytale_server -p 5520:5520/udp -v/etc/machine-id:/etc/machine-id:ro -v./data:/hytale ghcr.io/quantumsheep/hytale-docker:latest

   You can also use docker-compose:

   docker-compose up -d

2. Authentication (First Run Only): On the first run, you need to authenticate the server. Attach to the container's console to see the auth code:

   docker attach hytale_server

   Type /auth persistence Encrypted in the console.

   Once the "Credential storage changed to: Encrypted" message appears, you need to login.

   Type /auth login device in the console.

   Follow the instructions on the screen (visit the URL and enter the code). Once authenticated, you can detach (usually Ctrl+P, Ctrl+Q).

Persistence

Server data (world, config, logs) is stored in the /hytale directory inside the container.

Ports

The server listens on UDP port 5520. Ensure this port is forwarded if you are behind a router.

You can change the port using the PORT environment variable.
