Deduping with multiple containers #712

I'm running multiple instances of this container as I host a bunch of different Valheim worlds for friends.

I was curious if there was a way to share assets between all the servers/containers since they're all the same textures & such.

It seems like everything in the data/ folder MIGHT be common but I was worried about downloads, for instance. Would sharing the download folder (in data/dl/server/steamapps/) confuse multiple containers or would NOT sharing that confuse them as they'd be unaware another instance was downloading a file? Then again, they should be downloading the same file so maybe it doesn't matter?

Anyway, this is the type of things I'm curious about. Is there a mount-point where we're comfortable that everything is common? Is there some other way to share the data?

you could symlink all references of folder X to a master folder X somewhere to only have one copy.

That's the plan on HOW to share the files. I'm just trying to figure out which files I can do that with.
