Problem Description

Issue

I’d like the instance to activate every time someone tries to join the server, without needing my intervention to boot it up every time. From what I read, the “pause-when-empty-seconds” leaves the server completely running even when no one is playing, which is ok, but I’d rather have it go into the “sleep” status.

Reproduction Steps

  • I set the instance to “sleep” with the action in the “status” tab
  • My friend was able to join and play the minecraft server for a bit, then left
  • The server was then stopped, and he wasn’t able to join it after that.
  • I tried changing the “pause-when-empty-seconds” settings in the files
