Authentication security

The repository says passwords use PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256 with 120,000 iterations, per-user salts, and constant-time comparison.Read 7 Oct 2026 · github.com

Backups

Backups pause world saves, flush data, archive the files and resume saves afterward.Read 21 Oct 2026 · teploy.com

Beta status

The project describes itself as beta and says its repository records untested and deliberately deferred areas.Read 21 Oct 2026 · teploy.com

Configuration model

Each game server is defined by a JSON file containing its image, ports, protocols, data path and readiness line.Read 21 Oct 2026 · teploy.com

Console

The live console uses a replay buffer and sequence numbers so reconnecting clients can catch up on missed output.Read 7 Oct 2026 · teploy.com

Console commands

Commands are sent through RCON rather than a panel process pipe.Read 21 Oct 2026 · teploy.com

Docker requirement

Running real game servers requires a Docker daemon on the same host; without one Arcade uses an in-process simulator.Read 7 Oct 2026 · github.com

Docker validation

The repository records an end-to-end Docker test with Paper 1.20.4, console commands, a 166 MB backup and graceful stopping.Read 21 Oct 2026 · github.com

Documentation depth

The repository includes README, deployment, planning, bug, issue and TODO documents covering installation, architecture and known gaps.Read 21 Oct 2026 · github.com

Embedded frontend

The frontend is embedded into one static Go binary, so no separate frontend installation is required.Read 21 Oct 2026 · github.com

Extensibility

Templates are local JSON files, so adding a game can be done by dropping in a file and restarting without code changes.Read 21 Oct 2026 · github.com

Limit: deployment scope

The panel manages game containers on a single host rather than a multi-host fleet.Read 21 Oct 2026 · github.com

Other documented limits

The repository says scheduled backups are not implemented and metrics are held in memory and lost on restart.Read 7 Oct 2026 · github.com
