PalworldLocate the PalWorldSettings.ini Config File
The configuration file for your Palworld server, PalWorldSettings.ini, is the foundation of the server configuration. To access this essential document, go to the Saved/Config/LinuxServer directory on your FTP. In this folder, you will find the PalWorldSettings.ini file, which contains the multiple settings that govern the operation of your server.
Understanding the Customization Language
The PalWorldSettings.ini file uses a structured key-value format, where each setting is represented by a key in brackets and a corresponding value that determines the specific setting. For example, the following line adjusts the day time speed rate:
[/Script/Pal.PalGameWorldSettings]
OptionSettings=(DayTimeSpeedRate=1.000000)
Here, the key "DayTimeSpeedRate" controls the progression of game time during daylight hours, and its value, 1.000000, indicates a normal speed. By modifying these values, you can speed up or slow down the game's progression at your discretion.
