+# ARK: Survival Ascended — panel module
+
+A panel-compatible module for running ARK: Survival Ascended (SA) dedicated
+servers on any agent with Docker available.
+
+## What this is
+
+A thin manifest wrapper around `mschnitzer/ark-survival-ascended-server` —
+the most actively-maintained community image for ASA on Linux. That image
+handles the Proton runtime (ASA has no native Linux server) + SteamCMD +
+the Windows binary wrapper.
+
+## First-run flow
+
+1. **Create** the server in the panel (pick `ARK: Survival Ascended` from
+   the module picker).
+2. Click **Update** on its card → our generic SteamCMD sidecar downloads
+   ~18 GB into the instance's `install` volume.
+3. Open **Config** → under *Identity*, set the server name and admin
+   password. Save.
+4. Click **Start**. First map load takes 3–5 minutes — watch the **Console**
+   tab; when you see `Server started on port 7777`, it's ready.
+
+## RAM
+
+ASA is a hog. Plan for:
+
+- **12 GB** minimum for `TheIsland_WP` with up to ~30 players
+- **16 GB** comfortable
+- **24 GB** if you're running a popular community
+
+## Changing maps
+
+Set `SERVER_MAP` in the container env (the mschnitzer image reads it at
+boot). Valid values include:
+
+- `TheIsland_WP`
+- `TheCenter_WP`
+- `ScorchedEarth_WP`
+- `Aberration_WP`
+- `Extinction_WP`
+- `Astraeos_WP`
+- `ClubArk_WP`
+
+After changing the map, click **Stop → Start**.
+
+## Using your own image
+
+Replace the `image:` field in `module.yaml` with your Docker image. Keep
+the volume mounts (`/home/steam/ASA/AppFiles` and
+`/home/steam/ASA/AppFiles/ShooterGame/Saved`) so SteamCMD's output lands
+where ASA expects and saves persist across updates.
+
+## Known quirks
+
+- **First start is slow** (3–5 min). This is Proton loading + ARK doing
+  its world init. Subsequent starts are ~90 seconds.
+- **Windows file locks** — don't run Update while the server is running;
+  SteamCMD will conflict with ARK's open file handles.
+- **EAC is enabled by default.** If you want to run mods that EAC blocks,
+  disable via `-NoBattlEye` in the server args (community image exposes
+  an env for this).
