The Palworld server is always live, and Pals stay active even when the player is offline. Pals may get stuck in an awkward spot and respawn in an area inaccessible to food or sleep. Pals also get lower sanity and become depressed as time passes without the player taking care of them. Remember to build sufficient food boxes and spas for Pals. Medicine can be expensive, so here are a few fixes that can help.
Note: Placing Pals into the Palbox prior to logging off or constructing a spacious base may help reduce issues with Pals becoming stuck.
| Fix | Description |
|---|---|
| Disable Offline Penalty | Disables any penalties for offline players on the server. |
| Enable Exist Player After Logout | Pals will be happier to know their owner is on the server. However, the player will be hungry and can be at 1HP upon logging in after a long period of time. |
| Disable Pals Hunger Rate | Pal hunger is an essential feature of Palworld. However, lowering the Pal hunger rate can keep Pals from getting hungry while the player is logged off. |
