An enhanced Minecraft server container built with love, modpacks, and a dash of automation
Welcome to your FTB Skies 2 launchpad — a Docker container fine-tuned for Unraid. It automates setup and gets you skybound in no time. On first run, it pulls down the tagged version of the modpack, installs it fresh, and starts the party. Think of it as your personal Minecraft ground control.
⚠️ No modded Minecraft files are pre-bundled. Everything is downloaded on install, keeping things clean and updated.
This container builds upon the solid foundation laid by Goobaroo’s original FTB Skies Docker repo, customized for FTB Skies 2 with tweaks and troubleshooting baked in. Big thanks to Goobaroo for the great starting point.
To keep things flying:
/data to persistent storage25565/tcp for incoming trafficEULA=true to accept Mojang’s licenseWithout the EULA accepted, Minecraft folds its arms and refuses to cooperate.
Make your server behave like you want with these settings:
| Variable | Default | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
JVM_OPTS | -Xms4096m -Xmx6144m | Java memory configuration |
MOTD | FTB Skies 2 Server Powered by Docker | Welcome message on server list |
LEVEL | world | World folder name |
OPS | OpPlayer1,OpPlayer2 | Grant operator privileges to players |
Want admin rights like it’s your own kingdom? Pass your name(s) into the OPS variable like so:
OPS="OpPlayer1,OpPlayer2"
Verify that EULA=true is set. Without it, Minecraft won’t launch. Simple fix, powerful outcome.
The container uses UID 99 and GID 100 to stay compatible with Unraid. On other systems, you might need to change file ownership on /data to avoid permission issues.
Install didn’t complete? Just delete the downloaded server files inside /data and restart the container — it’ll begin fresh and re-download what’s needed.
Tweak it. Tune it. Launch it. All skies, no limits.
