You should be installing and using Wings in production environments with Pterodactyl Panel 1.0.

TIP

Your servers will not go offline during this process thanks to Docker. Clients will briefly lose connection to the Daemon from the Panel, but only during the restart phase.

## # Download Newest Release

First, ensure you're in the Daemon directory, `/srv/daemon`, before continuing through this process. After you've done that, run the command below to pull down the latest files and unpack them in the daemon directory.

    curl -L https://github.com/pterodactyl/daemon/releases/download/v0.5.7/daemon.tar.gz | tar --strip-components=1 -xzv

## # Update Components

After you've pulled down the latest files the last thing you need to do is run the commands below to update the components and then restart the daemon.

    npm update --only=production
    systemctl restart wings
