Palworld Server Hosting FAQ.
How much RAM does Palworld need on a dedicated server?
8-16 GB. Palworld memory use rises steadily with base count and captured Pals, so a busy server needs the upper end.
Can I install mods when hosting Palworld?
Yes, but with a specific setup: Palworld server mods need the Windows build running under Wine with UE4SS, which is why GameTeam ships a dedicated "Palworld UE4SS" option. Switch to it from Change Game, then .pak mods and UE4SS Lua mods can be installed. Our Tools page installs them for you.
How many players can Palworld support on one server?
32 is the supported maximum.
Why do my Palworld settings keep resetting to default?
PalWorldSettings.ini keeps every option on one long line under a single section header. If that header line is altered β an escaped character, a line break, a stray quote β the game does not report an error, it skips the whole block and runs on defaults. It looks like the settings were ignored rather than like a broken file. Editing through the panel or the AI copilot avoids it, because the file is rewritten as a whole rather than patched.
How do I install mods on a Palworld server?
Palworld mods need the Windows build running under Wine with UE4SS; the Linux dedicated build cannot load them at all. Switch to the "Palworld UE4SS" option from Change Game β your save is kept β and then .pak mods go into Pal/Content/Paks while UE4SS Lua mods go under Pal/Binaries/Win64/ue4ss/Mods. The Tools page installs both formats from a link for you.
My Palworld server crashes with signal 11 or exit code 139. What is it?
That is a segmentation fault, and on Palworld it is almost always the container image rather than the world or the settings. Older SteamCMD images crash on current Palworld builds; the current image runs fine. It is a one-line image change, not a reinstall, and nothing in the save is lost.
How do I change Palworld server settings on GameTeam?
Settings for Palworld live in PalWorldSettings.ini, which you can edit directly in the panel file manager. You can also describe the change in plain language and let the GameTeam AI copilot make it β it reads the file first, applies the edit and reads the value back, so you can see what actually changed. Console access, power controls, backups and schedules stay available either way.
