Automatic Updates
Configuring Automatic Updates with Cron
To be able to use automatic Updates with this Server the following environment variables have to be set to true:
RCON_ENABLEDUPDATE_ON_BOOT
Waarschuwing
If docker restart is not set to policy always or unless-stopped
then the server will shutdown and will need to be manually restarted.
The example docker run command and docker compose file in the Quicksetup already use the needed policy
