Conan Exiles — panel-native module

Panel-native Conan Exiles dedicated server. Enhanced (UE5) runs as a native Linux binary; Legacy (UE4, conan-exiles-legacy beta) still runs under Wine + Xvfb. Both editions share one debian:12-slim image — the entrypoint picks launch mode from the EDITION config_value.

• Image: panel-conan-exiles:latest — built from ./Dockerfile.
• Game files: downloaded by the panel's SteamCMD updater sidecar (app 443030) into the panel-<id>-game named volume. Edition matrix: Enhanced = native Linux depot (443032, ~4.27 GiB; platform: linux in module.yaml). Legacy = Windows-only depot under Wine (platform: windows, beta: conan-exiles-legacy).
• Saves: panel-<id>-saves at /game-saves; entrypoint moves ConanSandbox/Saved/ from the game install into the save volume on first boot and symlinks back, so SteamCMD validate can't clobber world data.
• Config: Enhanced uses ConanSandbox/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/; Legacy uses ConanSandbox/Saved/Config/WindowsServer/. On the first native boot after Wine, the entrypoint auto-copies ServerSettings.ini / Engine.ini / Game.ini from WindowsServer/ to LinuxServer/ so operator-tuned values survive the cut-over. Edit via Files tab.
• Mods: drop Workshop pak files + modlist.txt into ConanSandbox/Mods/ via the Files tab.
• RCON: real Source-RCON on 25575/tcp (internal). Password panel_rcon (default) — editable in module.yaml env.RCON_PASSWORD. Tracker dials on start; our agent redials on EOF/broken-pipe automatically.

STEAM_APP_ID	440900	Steamworks client init context — required for Steam master-server listing. Exported as both STEAM_APP_ID and SteamAppId for cross-build compat.

Known gotchas

• Edition split: Enhanced (UE5) ships a real Linux depot since 2026-05-05 and runs native (no Wine). Legacy (UE4, conan-exiles-legacy beta) is Windows-only and stays on Wine.
• Wine under Xvfb (Legacy only) adds ~30 s to first boot (prefix init) and ~15 s to subsequent boots (X server + Wine cold start). Native Enhanced has no Wine overhead.
• Workshop mod downloads happen to ConanSandbox/Mods/ — both the pak files AND modlist.txt need to be there for mods to load.
• Ready signal: LogGameState: Match State Changed from WaitingToStart to InProgress. Expect 1–3 min between docker-start and this line while UE4 loads the world.
