Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about Palworld server hosting? We've got answers.

Which version of Palworld does Instalobby run?

Always the latest release of the Palworld dedicated server from Steam. We check for new releases every day and update the server image automatically, so your server keeps matching the version Steam installs on your players' clients. Palworld requires the client and server versions to match.

How much RAM does my Palworld server get?

Palworld servers run on our Large VM, with 16 GB of RAM, the amount Palworld's own documentation recommends. The server's memory use grows during long sessions, and smaller machines risk running out of memory, so Large is the only size we offer for Palworld.

How many players can join?

Up to 32 players at the same time, Palworld's maximum for a dedicated server.

How do my friends join?

In Palworld, choose Join Multiplayer Game, type the IP and port shown on your server page (the port is 8211) in the box at the bottom, and click Connect. They'll be asked for the server password. Your server isn't listed in Palworld's community server browser, so only people you share the address with can find it.

Can I set a password for my Palworld server?

Yes, and it's required. You set it when you create the server, and players can't join without it. Palworld only accepts letters, numbers, hyphens and underscores in server passwords. The password is encrypted and stored securely.

Can I use mods on my Palworld server?

Mods are not supported yet. Your server runs the vanilla game. We're evaluating mod support for future updates.

What happens to my world when I stop the server?

Your world, your Pals, your bases and every player's progress are saved and stored safely when the server stops. When you start it again, you pick up exactly where you left off. Each server gets its own new world the first time it starts.

Can I change the server settings after creation?

Currently, server settings cannot be updated. We are working on this topic. If you want, for instance, to change the password, you may need to recreate the server.
