# Space Engineers Server on Linux
|
|
This is a docker container suitable for running a Space Engineers server.
|
|
There is no public prebuilt container image because of microsoft copyright restrictions.
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
- Create the required directory structure.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
mkdir -p space-engineers/{docker,data,steam}
|
|
mkdir -p space-engineers/data/Space\ Engineers/{Mods,Saves}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Clone this repository into the home directory of the new user account.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://github.com/ChipWolf/se-server.git space-engineers/docker
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Obtain a copy of the most current `DedicatedServer.zip` and place it in `~/games/space-engineers/data`. You may use this method below.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd)/space-engineers/steam:/data wilkesystems/steamcmd
|
|
|
|
# the following 4 commands are for the steamcmd terminal
|
|
login anonymous
|
|
force_install_dir /data
|
|
app_update 298740 validate
|
|
quit
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- At this stage we need to patch a few .dlls to fix an issue with mods not downloading, thanks to [Thomas\_Jefferson](https://forum.keenswh.com/members/thomas_jefferson.3913080/) from the Keen Software House forum for this one.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cd space-engineers/steam
|
|
zip -r ../data/DedicatedServer.zip
|
|
cd ../..
|
|
sudo chown -R 256:256 space-engineers
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Upload your `SpaceEngineers-Dedicated.cfg` and place it in `~/games/space-engineers/data/Space Engineers`. Use the one in this repository and edit it to your liking if you do not already have one.
|
|
|
|
- **Build the image!** *(This will take a while)*
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
space-engineers/docker/build.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Running
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker run -it -p 27016:27016/udp -v $(pwd)/games/space-engineers/data:/host --rm --name space-engineers saiban/space-engineers
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|

## Additional notes
|
|
Running SES this way requires a program called `sigmap`, Space Engineers ignores `SIGTERM` when it is sent by docker to stop the service, `sigmap` catches that signal and forwards a `SIGINT` to Space Engineers.

See [here](https://github.com/marjacob/sigmap "sigmap") for more information.
