That seems tricky to detect and risky to automate. It does seem like something that could be added to the README, since you're now the second person to encounter this.

It would be tough to reliably implement that. What I recommend is setting `BACKUP_INTERVAL` to `0`, which tells it to do one backup and exit, and run the container with...

Restic supports rclone as a backend, so I'm not sure if it's necessary to add an rclone specific option. https://restic.net/blog/2018-04-01/rclone-backend/

Can you provide your container configs, such as compose file? It looks like you went with the option to run the two containers in the same networking namespace. That's the...

Thanks. Yes, that would be a good note to add to the docs.

I'm pretty sure the backups won't work (currently) with auto pausing enabled since it needs to interact with the Minecraft server itself.

There's potentially several things configured incorrectly there - I'm not sure how `RCON_HOST: minecraft` would resolve to the loopback address 127.0.0.1, so your example output seems to be from your...

Agreed, it doesn't seem good to wake up the server just to check the player count. I'll work on a pair of fixes to this and https://github.com/itzg/docker-minecraft-server/issues/1113
