settings in .env are at least partly ignored

[ChrissWalters]

I followed the exact steps setting up my server in docker compose on ubunut 24.04 (server).

This is my .env:

User Settings

PUID=1001
PGID=1001

Server Settings

SERVER_NAME=Hytale - Hytaletest Server
DEFAULT_PORT=5520
MAX_PLAYERS=10

View Distance (in chunks, 12 chunks = 384 blocks)

Higher values require more RAM. Recommended max: 12

VIEW_DISTANCE=12

Authentication Mode (authenticated|offline)

authenticated: Requires player authentication (recommended)

offline: Allows unauthenticated players (for testing only)

AUTH_MODE=authenticated

Backup Settings

ENABLE_BACKUPS=true
BACKUP_FREQUENCY=30

Advanced Settings

DISABLE_SENTRY=true
USE_AOT_CACHE=true
ACCEPT_EARLY_PLUGINS=false

JVM Memory Settings (in GB)

Adjust based on your server resources and player count

MIN_MEMORY=4G
MAX_MEMORY=7G

Download Settings

Set to false to skip automatic server download on startup

DOWNLOAD_ON_START=true

Custom JVM Arguments (optional)

Example: JVM_ARGS=-XX:+UseG1GC -XX:+ParallelRefProcEnabled

JVM_ARGS=

This is the created config.json:

{
"Version": 4,
"ServerName": "Hytale Server",
"MOTD": "",
"Password": "",
"MaxPlayers": 100,
"MaxViewRadius": 32,
"Defaults": {
"World": "default",
"GameMode": "Adventure"
},
"ConnectionTimeouts": {},
"RateLimit": {},
"Modules": {},
"LogLevels": {},
"Mods": {},
"DisplayTmpTagsInStrings": false,
"PlayerStorage": {
"Type": "Hytale"
},
"Update": {},
"Backup": {}

As you can see, at least ServerName, MaxPlayers and MaxViewRadius are not correctly set in the config.json and are not live on the hytale server.

Hello @ChrissWalters
Can you please send me your docker-compose file, along with your .env file formatted? Use backticks in github to make it readable code.

Thank you.
