Panel Type

Pelican Panel only

Feature Type

Documentation improvement

Feature Description

To update the egg for a server you can temporarily change the egg to any different egg. Delete the old egg, upload the new egg, then change the server's egg back to the updated hytale egg. This avoids a reinstall or manually editing it.

Sorry I'm not sure if this works properly, but I tried it and it seemed to work fine on my server.

Would it be possible to change the update url to point to the github pelican egg? Then it can be updated from within the pelican panel.

Problem or Use Case

This avoids a reinstall or manually editing the egg when it needs to be updated.

Proposed Solution

I will try this out and if it works i will edit it
And unfortunately its not possible to use the official pelican egg because theirs work completely differently and is lacking 90% of the features mine has

Sorry I didn't mean using the official egg, I meant changing the default update url to your version on github. I saw an entry for it when I was going to edit the egg. It's at the bottom left of the screenshot

Yeah, I meant to use the GitHub repo URL. I used that URL for testing and kind of forgot it there, whoops 😂
It’s all fixed now. It uses the GitHub repo URL, and I’ve added better instructions on how to update the eggs.
