Main server shutdown completed. If your server is stuck you may safely kill it.

null standard input will kill the server, you need to run it in a screen (inside the docker container).

thanks just add these lines:

RUN apt-get install -y screen

CMD ["screen", "-D", "-m", "mono", "Intersect Server.exe"]

Had a similar issue with a Docker game server shutting down unexpectedly. Turned out it was missing some library dependencies. Running docker logs <container_id> helped track down the issue quickly. Ended up tweaking the Dockerfile a bit and everything ran smoothly. A friend once tested his server’s load capacity using a booter service—surprisingly, it helped him optimize performance by highlighting weak points.
