I dont think it's a good idea to recommend that because it's a security risk and afaik not needed in 99% of the cases (and if needed then they prob is a file perm issue)

As composer's own documentation states, composer shouldn't be run as root.
Instead of arbitrarily ignoring the warning, it's perhaps best to guide people to composer's documentation instead, although, I don't believe it should be up to pterodactyl's documentation to solve every single problem unrelated to pterodactyl itself.

If you expect to be able to install this with no understanding of basic linux system administration you should stop and turn around now.

COMPOSER_ALLOW_SUPERUSER=1 composer install --no-dev --optimize-autoloader

Maybe a more general link to proxy, because even if ptero seems a lot used for Miencraft it's not the only game hosted

afaik the most common use for proxies with Pterodactyl is Minecraft, and so far it is the only one with a community guide
