Change the Server Settings for Palworld

Adding the Default Configurations

📘

This guide will help you with configuring a Palworld Server within the Akliz system. If you do not have a plan with Akliz you can get started with one here.

With Palworld the server configs do not generate by default and you will need to copy those over. For more information about what each configuration parameters are go to Palworld's official guide here.

  1. You will need to start the server once & stop it again, in order to generate the config files for the server.
  2. In your Command Center under the File tab, you will want to go to find your DefaultPalWorldSettings.ini. You can edit this file with your browser. Open the file then copy the bottom two lines.

  1. One you have those two lines copied, you'll want to navigate to the PalWorldSettings.ini. The folder path in your files tab /palworld/Pal/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/PalWorldSettings.ini
  1. Last you'll paste in the two lines you copied into your PalWorldSettings.ini. Then you can adjust the server to your needs.
