Engineering the Palworld Experience
Palworld offers complete control over your survival journey, allowing you to transform a high-stakes, hardcore grind into a fast-paced creative adventure. These settings are managed through a series of numeric multipliers situated within your server’s primary configuration registry. By precisely calibrating variables like XP gain, Pal capture probability, and resource yield, you can tailor the gameplay loop to perfectly align with your community’s preferences.Difficulty

Technical Configuration Workflow
Follow these steps to modify the fundamental logic of your world.Initialize Maintenance
Log in to the Game Panel and Stop your server. Edits performed while the engine is active will be overwritten by the server’s cache upon shutdown.
Open the Settings Registry
Navigate to the Files tab and open:
/Pal/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/PalWorldSettings.iniAdhere to Syntax Constraints
Critical: The Palworld engine requires all settings to exist on a single continuous line within the
OptionSettings=(...) block. Do not introduce line breaks or spaces between the parameters, as this will cause the configuration to fail.Essential Gameplay Multipliers
Adjust these primary variables to recalibrate the balance of your world.| Technical Variable | Default | Logic | Strategic Result |
|---|---|---|---|
ExpRate | 1.0 | Increase | Accelerates character and Pal leveling (e.g., 2.0 = 2x XP). |
PalCaptureRate | 1.0 | Increase | Improves the mathematical probability of successful captures. |
CollectionDropRate | 1.0 | Increase | Scales the materials gathered from nodes like Wood and Stone. |
CollectionObjectHpRate | 1.0 | Decrease | Reduces node health, making resource harvesting significantly faster. |
Difficulty | None | Constant | Maintain as None to ensure your custom numeric values are not overridden by presets. |
Resolving Blank Configuration Files
If yourPalWorldSettings.ini initializes as a completely blank file, you must manually populate it with the engine’s default template. You can retrieve this block from the DefaultPalWorldSettings.ini file situated in your server’s root directory. Copy the entire contents into your live configuration before applying your specific overrides.Need Extra Help?
