This repository provides a safe⁠ container image for the Insurgency: Sandstorm⁠ dedicated server. It is designed to be used with Docker Compose, making it easy to set up and manage your game server environment.

⁠Requirements

• Docker Compose⁠

⁠Installation

Once Docker and Docker Compose are installed, clone this repository to your local machine:

git clone https://github.com/RouHim/insurgency-sandstorm-container-image.git

Before starting the server, create the required folder structure, and adjust the permissions:

mkdir data/ 
chmod 777 data/

⁠Usage

This will pull the latest image and start the server in detached mode.

When starting the server for the first time:

• The server will download the latest version of the game from Steam to the data/ folder.

To restart the server after making changes to the configuration, use the following command:
