Palworld Server with Password

Steam Palworld servers are public by default, and anyone can join. To restrict access to your server, you can set a password. This guide will show you how to do that in a few simple steps.

Setting a server password

  1. Start your server
  2. Pause your server
  3. Open your server's files
  4. Edit the gameserver/Pal/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/PalWorldSettings.ini file
  5. Change the ServerPassword value to your desired server password
  6. Save the file
  7. Restart your server

Example config file

Here is an example of what your PalWorldSettings.ini file could look like, if you want your password to be MySuperSecurePassword:

[/Script/Pal.PalGameWorldSettings]
OptionSettings=(ServerName="My Palworld Server",ServerDescription="Hosted for free by Squadnox",AdminPassword="",ServerPassword="MySuperSecurePassword",AllowConnectPlatform=Steam)
