Setting up the generation is only one step, and a complete checklist needs to be run before and after the upgrade.
Setting generator
PalWorldSettings.ini Generator
Generates downloadable configuration drafts in accordance with SPEC A5; each field is accompanied by player language and risk descriptions.

Field explanation
| field | player language | risk |
|---|---|---|
| ServerPlayerMaxNum | Simultaneous online limit. | Too high will increase performance and management pressure. |
| ExpRate | Experience multiplier. | The higher the magnification is not, the better, it will change the early technology rhythm. |
| Global Palbox Export / Import | Whether the player is allowed to take Pal out of or into the world. | It will directly affect the reopening strategy and server fairness. |
| CrossplayPlatforms | Which platforms are allowed to join. | The more platforms there are, the more necessary it is to test the connection and version compatibility first. |
Side notes on private server launch: whitelist, non-public IP and management port
| what do you want to do | Official field implementation (docs 0.7.2) | actual practice |
|---|---|---|
| Only allow a certain number of people to enter (whitelist) | The official settings table does not have native whitelist/banlist fields. | Use ServerPassword(Server entry password) undertakes most needs; strict whitelisting relies on third-party tools, which is a Mod-level risk, and you are responsible for compatibility and security. |
| Don’t want to be discovered by strangers (non-public) | PublicIP / PublicPort Is an explicit public field used to register the community server list. | Do not register as a community server and do not fill in the public field. The connection address is only sent to teammates privately, and the server password is added. |
| Control who can manage the server | AdminPassword is the administrative authority password;RCONEnabled / RESTAPIEnabled It is the remote management port. | The management password and the server entry password should be set separately; RCON (remote console) and REST API should be left alone if not in use. The public network environment is the attack surface. |
| Determine the number of people online at the same time | ServerPlayerMaxNum It is an upper limit field, not a recommended value. | Start according to the lower limit of the actual number of people online at the same time, and then relax after running the small server verification; do not fill in the upper limit of the rental server specifications. |
| Decide which platforms can enter | CrossplayPlatforms Default (Steam,Xbox,PS5,Mac). | Only the platforms that the team actually uses are left; for each additional platform, there will be one more round of real-person connection testing before going online. |
The world options most tuned by players (not included in this generator)
The following belong to the world opening/world setting layer, not the server ini fields; it is worth aligning with your teammates before restarting or opening a new server. Entries are compiled by the community, and the specific option names are subject to those in the game.
| Options | Why do players adjust it? |
|---|---|
| egg hatching time | The option most commonly adjusted to fast; breeding players often directly adjust it to extremely short. |
| Does death drop | Determines the death penalty weight, and novice teams often close the drop. |
| Hardcore/Random Mode | Hardcore increases the punishment; random mode disrupts the distribution of Pals, and the restart experience has the greatest difference. |
| Maximum number of bases | The upper limit of the base can be adjusted in the world setting, which is different from the default upper limit of the progress unlock. |
How to check after generation
| Checkpoint | What to see | What happens if I'm wrong? |
|---|---|---|
| Number of players | Whether it meets the actual simultaneous online situation, rather than the upper limit of the rental server specifications. | Too many people will amplify performance and management pressure. |
| magnification | Whether to change the early tempo for new players. | If the magnification is too high, the technology and resource chain will lose their reference value. |
| Global Palbox | Whether Export/Import all comply with the server owner's policy. | It will affect reopening, fairness and player asset flow. |
| Cross-platform | Are Steam, Xbox, PS5, and Mac all required? | The more platforms there are, the more necessary it is for real-person online testing before going online. |

Before deciding whether to allow Pal to enter or leave the world, look at the player-side effects.
If the server has a Mod, verify it on the bare server first and then restore it.
