• You can map the directory containing server files with -v /my/path:/server-files.
• You need to bind X ports for client connection. (Example : If you have 10 slots, you need to put -p 16262-16272:16262-16272, if you have 100 slots, you need to put -p 16262-16362:16262-16362).
• Port 16261 need to be bind in tcp AND udp.
• Once you have run the docker for the first time, you can edit your config file in your map directory /server-data. (In Server/$SERVERNAME.ini)
• SERVERNAME is not the display name of your server, you need to edit /server-data/Server/$SERVERNAME.ini.
