+# Palworld Dedicated Server
+
+Palworld dedicated server running on the Seattle VM via Docker, using [thijsvanloef/palworld-server-docker](https://github.com/thijsvanloef/palworld-server-docker).
+
+## Connection Info
+
+| Service | Address                        | Protocol |
+|---------|--------------------------------|----------|
+| Game    | `100.82.197.124:8211`          | UDP      |
+| Query   | `100.82.197.124:27016`         | UDP      |
+| RCON    | `100.82.197.124:25575`         | TCP      |
+
+Connect in-game using the Tailscale IP: `100.82.197.124:8211`
+
+RCON is accessible only over Tailscale (port 25575/tcp).
+
+Query port is set to 27016 instead of the default 27015 to avoid conflict with the Gmod server.
+
+## Server Management
+
+```bash
+# Start the server
+cd /opt/palworld && docker compose up -d
+
+# Stop the server
+docker compose down
+
+# View logs
+docker compose logs -f palworld-server
+
+# Restart the server
+docker compose restart palworld-server
+
+# Force update the server
+docker compose down && docker compose pull && docker compose up -d
+```
+
+### RCON Commands
+
+Connect with any RCON client to `100.82.197.124:25575` using the admin password.
+

+| `TZ`               | America/Los_Angeles | Server timezone                  |
+
+To set passwords without committing them, export env vars before starting:
+
+```bash
+export SERVER_PASSWORD="REDACTED_PASSWORD"
+export ADMIN_PASSWORD="REDACTED_PASSWORD"
+docker compose up -d
+```
+
+## Resource Limits
+
+- CPU limit: 8 cores, reservation: 2 cores
+- Memory limit: 16 GB, reservation: 4 GB
+
+## Data & Backups
+
+Server data persists in the `palworld-data` Docker volume.
+
+```bash
+# Find volume location
+docker volume inspect palworld_palworld-data
+
+# Backup the volume
+docker run --rm -v palworld_palworld-data:/data -v $(pwd):/backup alpine tar czf /backup/palworld-backup.tar.gz -C /data .
+```
+
+## Firewall Rules
+
+The following ports must be open on the Seattle VM:
+
+- `8211/udp` -- Game traffic (open to Tailscale or LAN)
+- `27016/udp` -- Steam query (open to Tailscale or LAN)
+- `25575/tcp` -- RCON (restrict to Tailscale only)
