tf2-docker-comp

A Docker image for hosting a competitive Team Fortress 2 server.

Quick Start

The following will start up a server container with RGL Season 5 6s and Highlander configs and maps, as well as some ultiduo maps / configs.

1. Install docker and docker-compose
2. Download and unzip the quickstart setup
3. Modify .env to reflect desired values in the table (it's a hidden file)
4. Run docker-compose up -d to start the container in the background
5. If there is a firewall, make sure to allow both TCP and UDP traffic on the CFG_GAMEPORT, and UDP traffic on the CFG_STVPORT

Environment Variables

Fields with default value * represent sensitive information, and thus have no (usable) default value.

Environment Variable	Default	Description
CFG_CONTACT	*	Contact email for server owner
CFG_DEMOS	*	demos.tf API key
CFG_DEMOS_PATH	stv_demos	Path to store recorded SourceTV demos
CFG_LOGS	*	logs.tf API key
CFG_HOSTNAME	tf2-docker	Server hostname
CFG_MAPSDL	https://dl.serveme.tf/	Host for fast-downloading maps
CFG_MAXPLAYERS	24	Maximum number of concurrent players allowed on the server
CFG_PASSWORD	*	Password used to connect to the server in-game
CFG_RCON_PASSWORD	*	RCON password for server administration
CFG_STARTMAP	mge_training_v8_beta4b	First map that is loaded when the server starts
CFG_STEAMTOKEN	*	Steam game server token
CFG_GAMEPORT	27015	Port for game connections
CFG_STVPORT	27020	Port for SourceTV connections

Custom Maps, Configs, and Plugins

You can modify maps.txt, cfgs.txt, and plugins.txt while the container is running and restart the server with a rcon _restart the server from the TF2 console to download everything.

maps.txt

Each line is interpreted as a map name or as a link to a .bsp/.bsp.bz2 file.

If no url is specified, it will try to download from https://dl.serveme.tf/maps/.

If the file is a .bz2, it will automatically extract the bz2 file.

Ex:

cp_villa_b18
https://dl.serveme.tf/maps/cp_villa_b18.bsp
http://tempus.site.nfoservers.com/server/maps/jump_sketchy2_rc1_zip.bsp.bz2

cfgs.txt

Each line is interpreted as a link to a .cfg file or a .zip. The full URL must be specified.

If the file is a .zip, it will extract it and find every file that is a .cfg and move it out.

Ex:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Stochast1c/cfg/master/esea/esea_base.cfg
https://www.ugcleague.com/files/configs/UGC_UD_cfg_v091920.zip

plugins.txt

Each line is interpreted as a link to a .smx. The full URL must be specified.

Ex:

https://github.com/demostf/plugin/raw/master/demostf.smx

anything else

If you want to have greater control over customization, you can attach to the service with docker-compose exec tf2-comp bash. Then, you can download, delete, or modify anything you want on the filesystem.

RCON

If you ever need to have direct rcon access instead of connecting from the in-game console, you can do so by directly attaching to the running container ID or name found by running docker container ls.

Known Issues

• No non-RGL maps / configs by default
