+# Avorion Pterodactyl Compatibility Image
+
+This is a thin wrapper image for the Avorion egg that keeps behavior as close as possible to the original `ghcr.io/ptero-eggs/steamcmd:debian` image while fixing Avorion's `getpwuid(getuid()) returned NULL` startup failure.
+
+## What this fixes
+
+Avorion expects the current runtime UID inside the container to resolve to a valid user entry with a home directory. On some Pterodactyl setups, the server process runs as a UID that does not exist in `/etc/passwd` inside the image. When that happens, Avorion can crash on startup with:
+
+- `Error finding home directory: getpwuid(getuid()) returned NULL`
+- `Could not find a suitable directory for saving files`
+
+This image adds a temporary passwd/group entry at startup using `libnss-wrapper`, while keeping the rest of the egg behavior nearly unchanged.
+
+## Build and publish
+
+Replace `YOUR_GHCR_USER` with your GitHub Container Registry namespace.
+
+```bash
+docker build -t ghcr.io/YOUR_GHCR_USER/avorion-steamcmd-nsswrap:latest .
+docker push ghcr.io/YOUR_GHCR_USER/avorion-steamcmd-nsswrap:latest
+```
+
+## Egg changes
+
+In your Avorion egg JSON, change only the Docker image entry.
+
+From:
+
+```json
+"docker_images": {
+  "ghcr.io/ptero-eggs/steamcmd:debian": "ghcr.io/ptero-eggs/steamcmd:debian"
+}
+```
+
+To something like:
+
+```json
+"docker_images": {
+  "ghcr.io/YOUR_GHCR_USER/avorion-steamcmd-nsswrap:latest": "ghcr.io/YOUR_GHCR_USER/avorion-steamcmd-nsswrap:latest"
+}
+```
+
+You can leave the install script alone for the first test.
+
+## Recommended startup command
+
+Start with the most conservative startup possible so you are only testing the image fix:
+
+```bash
+export HOME=/home/container; mkdir -p "/home/container/galaxy/{{GALAXY_NAME}}/moddata/ConfigLib"; exec ./bin/AvorionServer --galaxy-name "{{GALAXY_NAME}}" --admin "{{ADMIN_ID}}" --datapath galaxy --port "{{SERVER_PORT}}" --query-port "{{QUERY_PORT}}" --steam-master-port "{{STEAM_MASTER_PORT}}" --steam-query-port "{{STEAM_QUERY_PORT}}" --max-players "{{MAX_PLAYERS}}" --difficulty "{{DIFFICULTY}}" --collision-damage "{{COLLISION_DMG}}" --save-interval "{{SAVE_INTERVAL}}" --same-start-sector "{{SAME_START_SECTOR}}" --server-name "{{SERVER_NAME}}" --threads "{{GAME_THREADS}}" --listed "{{SERVER_LISTED}}"
+```
+
+## Suggested rollout steps
+
+1. Add `Dockerfile` and `entrypoint.sh` to a new Git repo.
+2. Build and push the image to GHCR.
+3. Update only the egg's Docker image reference.
+4. Leave the install script unchanged.
+5. Use the conservative startup command above.
+6. Reinstall or rebuild the server container if needed so it pulls the new image.
+7. Start the server and confirm the Avorion home-directory error is gone.
+8. Only after it boots cleanly, revisit `--datapath`, symlinks, or mod path adjustments.
