Setting Random Spawn Rules for Palworld

Set random Pal spawns directly in the Panel, or bring an existing world with you using the upload instructions below.

Set random spawns in CreeperPanel

1. Stop Palworld and open Settings.
2. Select Pals & Progression and find Pal Spawn Randomizer.
3. Choose Randomize Within Each Region or Randomize All Spawns. Choose Disabled for normal spawns.
4. Set Pal Randomizer Seed if you want a particular seed. Turn on Fully Randomize Wild Pal Levels if you also want to randomise levels beyond their normal area ranges.
5. Save your changes and start the server.

The seed and level controls become available when a randomiser mode is selected. Use these controls on a current supported Palworld server.

Bring an existing random-spawn world

You can still upload a world created on your computer. Start the server once to create its folders, then stop it before uploading. Keep copies of both worlds first. If your local world is already ready, skip to Uploading your Random Spawn World.

Creating your Random Spawn World

1. Load up Palworld on your client machine, and click Start Game at the main menu.

2. Select Create New World.

3. Set your world name, then
4. Select Confirm.

5. Select Custom Settings in the world creation menu.

6. Scroll down until you see the Random Pal Mode settings.
7. Select your random spawn setting - Randomize by Region will randomise the set list of Pals that will spawn in a region; Completely Random will randomise all Pals no matter what region you are in. You can also set your seed for Pal generation, and choose to randomise wild Pal levels.
8. Select OK to save your customisations.

9. Select OK.

10. Select Yes in the pop-up to continue.

11. Create your character, and select Start Game.

12. Select Yes in the pop-up to continue.

Uploading your Random Spawn World

Now the world is created, you'll need to upload it to your server. Open an explorer window, and locate your local Palworld saves. The directory path is C:\Users\YourProfile\AppData\Local\Pal\Saved\SaveGames\, replacing YourProfile with your own account name. Inside this directory, locate the files for the world you wish to upload.

13. Highlight the files for the world you want to upload. This will include the backup and Players directories. Right click them, then
14. Select Compress to... from the menu, and
15. Select .ZIP File to keep the world files together in a ZIP archive. The archive name does not matter.

Now we need to locate the directory we need to upload the world files to. On the Panel:

16. Select your Palworld instance, then
17. Select Files, found under Settings in the sub-menu.
18. Expand the Pal directory, then
19. Expand the Saved directory, then
20. Expand the SaveGames directory, then
21. Expand the 0 directory, and
22. Select the alphanumerical directory inside to open it in the Panel. This directory contains the files we need to replace.

23. Now, select the .ZIP archive you've just created, then
24. Drag and drop it into the alphanumerical directory that you've opened on the CreeperPanel.

25. Right-click your uploaded .ZIP archive in the Panel, then
26. Select Extract.

27. Select Extract to extract the files into the alphanumerical directory. This will overwrite the existing world files with your new ones.

That's it! You've uploaded your pre-configured Palworld world, and are free to start your server! Be careful - those Pals can be dangerous!
