I would really appreciate if someone who is using a separate user ID could assist in testing this functionality.

git checkout mbround18/16-ability-to-change-steam-userid

# Edit the docker-compose.yml then
docker-compose up --build

tested it locally. The generated files now have the right user id.

Not sure if this is an issue with the changes but, TZ doesn't get respected. I'll test it later with the official release.

So the TZ environment only seems to work for the init.sh logs. It also doesn't work with the released version. So I add a new issue for that.

@Fabiryn that should be an easy fix :) ill make the change at lunch and toss it up

[mbround18]

Alright, my latest push has the timezone fixes. From my testing, it sets the timezone correctly and when I exec into the system it now has the correct timezone. (Tested with PST, CST, and EST)
