TheForest

TheForest

Docker app from ich777's Repository

Overview

This Docker will download and install SteamCMD. It will also install The Forest and run it. SERVERNAME: 'The Forest Docker' SERVERPASSWORD: 'Docker' ADMINPASSWORD: 'adminDocker' (you can change this in your SERVERFOLDER/config/config.cfg)

BETA Warning: Since this Docker runs with WINE it's marked as BETA, i can not guarantee if the server is running always as expected!

ATTENTION: First Startup can take very long since it downloads the gameserver files!

WARNING: You have to create a Steam Token to play Online.
Create your token here: https://steamcommunity.com/dev/managegameservers (please note that you must generate the token for the APPID: '242760' and every gameserver needs it's own token!!!). After creating your token you have to go to the file .../theforest/config/config.txt and append your token to the line that starts with: serverSteamAccount (eg: serverSteamAccount YOURTOKEN).

Update Notice: Simply restart the container if a newer version of the game is available.

You can also run multiple servers with only one SteamCMD directory!
