A proper Readme.md would be nice

Hey Brenno!

Thanks for the great work. I think, this is a pretty neat sollution for running a PZ server. May i have a few suggestioins?

in the .env file, you should export, not just the admin password, but also the server name. Not everyone want's to live in "da-hood" 😄
Writing a step-by-step guide what to do after docker comose up -d would be very nice, because I'm honestly, a little lost.

I've entered the container, and tried to start the server with bash zomboid_scripts/entry.sh but I'm sure I don't have to tell you, that did not go well. It got stuck at quitting.

root@6d4241d2fb88:/opt# bash ./zomboid_scripts/entry.sh
Using args: -Xmx8G -Xms4G -- -servername da-hood -cachedir=/opt/zomboid_data -adminpassword asdasdasd2
THE PID OF THE SERVER IS 80!

One cause could be, that I have a webserver, with 4GB rof RAM only, and I forgot to change the server properties to a lower memory size (BTW: This also could go to the .env file) But as you can see at the end, even Ctrl+C did not quit it. I had to force destroy the container.

So if you could tell me, how did I mess this up so badly, I would listen and learn from it. 😃 Also, how do you manage mods with the containers? I can see the workshop and data folders, but they are just empty.

Thanks in advance !
