# TF2 for Docker

This repo contains a Docker setup for automatically downloading, updating, and running a TF2 server.

## Quickstart

Start by running `touch server.env`. You can leave this file blank for now.

Run `./tf2.sh` to download and start the server. Once the download has completed, you should see the message ` >> Starting server`. If you're running this on your local machine you should also see the server appear under the LAN tab of the server browser.

The server volume is mounted to `data/`. You'll probably want `data/tf/` which has things like `cfg`, `maps`, etc.

## Accessing the Console

```bash

./tf2.sh daemon

./tf2.sh console

# Or

./tf2.sh d

./tf2.sh c

```

This starts the server in daemon-mode and then attaches to the process in the container. Once attached you can type in console commands, such as `sm version` if you have SourceMod installed.

**NOTE:** Because you are attaching directly to the server process, if you press `CTRL-C` it will exit the server. To detach, press `CTRL-A, D`.

## Server Configuration

You can customize the server startup options with a `server.env` file. These are command line options used by SRCDS. For a full list of possible options see the [wiki page](https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Command_Line_Options#Source_Dedicated_Server).

### Options

- `SERVER_TOKEN`

	- A login token for your server, required by Steam. [Get a login token here.](https://steamcommunity.com/dev/managegameservers)

- `IP`

	- The IP to bind the server to. Leave this blank unless you know what you're doing. (default: `0.0.0.0`)

- `PORT`

	- The port to bind the server to. (default: `27015`)

- `START_MAP`

	- The map to load when the server starts. (default: `ctf_2fort`)

- `MAX_PLAYERS`

	- The maximum number of players for the server. (default: 16, max is 32)

- `VAC`

	- Enable/disable Valve Anti-Cheat. (default: `1`, use `0` for insecure)

- `DEBUG`

	- Enable/disable debugging. (default: `0`, use `1` to enable)

- `EXTRA`

	- Any extra command line options. These are appended to the end of the options before starting the server.

## Troubleshooting

- **The server crashes on startup and says to enable debugging for more info**

	- Open `docker/Dockerfile` and uncomment the debug section

	- Add `DEBUG=1` to `server.env`

	- Run `./tf2.sh`

	- Once you've solved the issue you can re-comment the debug section in the Dockerfile

- **"There is no screen to be attached matching tf2." error when running `./tf2.sh console`**

    - This usually means you pressed `CTRL-C` while attached in a previous console session and killed the server.

    - Run `./tf2.sh restart`
