Docker Run with defaults (10 players) change the volume options to a directory on your node and maybe use a admin and password then the one in the example

docker run -it -p 16261:16261/udp -p 16262:16272/tcp -v /app/docker/temp-vol:/app \
-e SERVERNAME="default" \

To allow more then 10 players extend the port range by the number of players (16262 + # of players). EG for 20 players:

docker run -it -p 16261:16261/udp -p 16262:16282/tcp -v /app/docker/temp-vol:/app \
-e SERVERNAME="default" \
-e PASSWORD="password123" \
--name pz-server \
