Alright, well, I'll probably give up on the dedicated server idea and just host it on my main PC with an i7 13700k Thanks for looking into it for me!

The CPU is at like 10-15%, max, while playing. Is there any way to ensure the docker container can use more system resources? And, of course inside the castle, I don't expect it to be super quick, but fighting enemies outside of the castle, where even my 7 year old gaming laptop runs the game at 60fps, it desyncs constantly, and the lag makes it almost unplayable. valheim-world.zip

My Valheim Dedicated server is very slow. Granted, I have a massively huge castle, but it runs fine on my gaming PC. At least locally. But, the castle loads in a brick at a time and takes about 30 seconds to fully load the first time I enter the server. And when we play together, we get constant de-syncs and pretty bad lag. For example, people frequently can't open chests, and fighting enemies is hit or miss, as they glitch around and lag out. You never really know if what you're fighting is an enemy that's actually there, or if they've moved away, or have already killed you... frustrating. Is this just Valheim's inability to properly network, or is this a symptom of the Docker container not having enough system resources? What I can't figure out is how to assign more system resources to the container. When I look at the system resources while it's running, I'm maxing out at around 10-12% CPU usage, and very limited RAM usage, and the GPU is (predictably, I suppose) idling. Server specs: i7 3770k 32 GB DDR3 RAM GTX 960 (4GB) Server is hosting 4 people at a time, maximum. Any thoughts on improving the performance of the server?

I just came here to thank you so much for cluing me in on the problem I was facing. I installed Unraid Connect, and could not for the life of me get it to work. So, I uninstalled it and rebooted my server. That lead to the server not loading the webgui (or so I thought) and I couldn't get to tower.local or the IP address. It turns out, I had changed the port that Unraid Connect was supposed to use, thinking it was safe. This caused my ident.cfg file to be changed to change both the http (80) and https (443) ports in the ident file, hence why I could still connect via Putty (port 22), and I could see that NginX and PHP were running, but somehow my WebGUI was still inaccessible. Editing ident.cfg (nano /boot/indent.cfg) allowed me to change those values back to 80 and 443 from the values Unraid Connect changed them to, et voila!!! Thank you so much! I'm in Mexico for 3 weeks and my Valheim server seemed like it was going to be down the entire time I was here. Ironically, I never tried connecting to that server, but it probably would have connected if I had tried it... O_o For Google-juice: Can't get to Unraid WebGUI tower.local or IP Address after uninstalling Unraid Connect, but Putty connects to server

This saved me as well! Removed the errored plugins, rebooted, and it let me install Plex again! Thanks!!!
