## Description

A dedicated server for Hytale. The server files are downloaded and updated with the official Hytale Downloader. First start: you must sign in with your Hytale account. Open the container log, go to the URL that it shows, and sign in. When the server has started, the log shows a second link. Open it and authorize again. View distance has the largest effect on RAM use. Set MAX_MEMORY to match the RAM you give the server. Hytale uses QUIC over UDP. Forward UDP port 5520 on your router. If you change the port, also change DEFAULT_PORT. To install mods, put .jar or .zip files in the mods folder of the server files and restart the container. Docker image by indifferentbroccoli.

## Common questions

### Why does the Hytale server refuse to start on a fresh host?

Install Java 25 first and check it with java -version, because the Hytale server will not run if Java 25 is missing.

### Which firewall rule do players need to join?

The server listens for players on port 5520, so allow that port in your firewall if remote friends should join.

### What memory setting should I use for a small server?

Set the memory limits to about 4GB for a small server, such as -Xms4G -Xmx4G. Too little RAM can make the server crash or lag badly.

### Where should I look for a lost world after a broken container?

The real world can be trapped inside a stopped container's writable layer after a bind-mount path mismatch, so inspect that layer instead of assuming the obvious save file is the real one.
