New player trying to setup a dedicated server
I've no idea how dockers work. I just followed this step-by-step guide to putting up a NWNX server, which has all of 8 steps/commands you need to run (ignoring step #8 which is only needed for WSL users), and takes about 5 minutes: https://github.com/Daztek/NWNX-WSL

E6 Scripting Help With Nwn Pw
The much tricker step is the NWNX server. If you're used to just running a normal server.exe this can feel like a bit of a step up. I'm a Windows user, and many of the instructions are written assuming you know Linux. This could be a hurdle too far for most, but I just followed these instructions to use NWNX Server on WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) which basically runs a mini Linux machine on your Windows install. (https://github.com/Daztek/NWNX-WSL) Of course, if you're anything like me, you don't have WSL installed either so need to follow another link to get that working!
