Host for short-term use by few people; use dedicated server for long-term use by many people/upgrades.
Detailed description
The host mode (multiplayer collaboration) is suitable for short-term, small number of people, and can be played at any time; the disadvantage is that others cannot enter if the host is not online, and the number of people and stability are limited. Dedicated servers (private servers) are suitable for long-term, multiple people, stable operation and maintenance, and 1.0 upgrade management: sustainable online, controllable settings, and upgrades with backup and rollback paths. 1.0 has a larger upgrade area for private servers (setting diff, Mod compatibility, player information), so you need to run the upgrade list first. The choice depends on your number of people and long-term sustainability, not on which one is "stronger".
Judge your situation first
| what do you want to do now | Judgment method | Next step |
|---|---|---|
| Just want to upgrade safely | First run the upgrade checklist to complete backup, stop service, settings verification and verification. | Open list |
| To change settings | Use the generator to generate a draft, and then check it with the 1.0 file or actual measurement. | Build settings |
| Mod installed | Verify the server first, and then restore it one by one. Don't open it all at once. | Watch Mod Risks |
Operation sequence
| order | action |
|---|---|
| 1 | Back up world, players, settings and current server version. |
| 2 | Stop the server and stop player writing to avoid half-written data during upgrades. |
| 3 | Check Palbox, cross-platform, player count, multiplier and mod status. |
| 4 | Live login verification base, Palbox, box, teleportation and exit and re-entry. |
Common misunderstandings
| Misunderstanding | why to avoid |
|---|---|
| Only watch the process start | The startup of the service does not mean that players can enter the server or that the archive can be written. |
| Keep old settings | The old `PalWorldSettings.ini` can only be used as a baseline, not as a security template. |
| Mod is fully open at once | The source of the failure will be indistinguishable and rollback costs will increase. |
