Palworld - Config file keeps returning to Container defaults upon restarting container

[ggardenhire]

Thank you for getting this branch ready so fast after early access launch. I am running this application in Unraid.

When I edit the config file at /serverdata/serverfiles/Pal/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/PalWorldSettings.ini and then restart the container to apply the changes (EX: Changing Server Name or Server Password), when I go back to this file then all of the changes are undone and reset to the default container parameters except for Public IP which will correctly update each time.

Container logs after restarting container:

Would be nice if you can tell what the issue was.

Hello, sorry I reviewed the support forum (https://forums.unraid.net/topic/79530-support-ich777-gameserver-dockers/page/366/) and realized I was not stopping the container before making the changes. I had closed it since it was user error. Thank you!
