nukla/paintball2 repository overview

⁠Basic usage

All steps described below assume you have docker installed and running.

First, pull the image: docker pull nukla/paintball2

⁠start a basic fresh server from scratch

docker run -p 27910:27910/udp -v /path/to/some/existing/dir/on/the/host/:/paintball2/pball/ -it nukla/paintball2

after starting the server you can find all the relevant files in /path/to/some/existing/dir/on/the/host/ which you specified above.
The host directory should already exist and not be owned by root. Otherwise you will get permission errors

⁠start a server with an existing pball directory (configs/maps/demos/etc)

docker run -p 27910:27910/udp -v /path/to/your/pball/:/paintball2/pball/ -it nukla/paintball2

⁠custom launch arguments

When no additional arguments are provided, the paintball2 binary will be run with +set dedicated 1 +exec server.cfg +map midnight as arguments.

If you specify your own arguments, none of the default arguments will be set. You can specify your own arguments by just appending them to the end of the docker command.
For example if you want to run the binary with the arguments +set dedicated 1 +exec randomconfigfile.cfg, you would do it like this: docker run -p 27910:27910/udp -v /path/to/your/pball/:/paintball2/pball/ -it nukla/paintball2 +set dedicated 1 +exec randomconfigfile.cfg
