Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
My server does not appear in the Official Servers list?
This is official game servers by the developer, not community servers
My server does not appear in the community servers list?
Our servers should be searchable by default. The Palworld Server search bar is Case Sensitive.
Check what you type in the search bar and make sure the name and the letter case both match the server.
I clicked connect with my server IP and port but it doesn't connect?
This could be several things, firstly make sure you have the correct IP and port,
maybe there is an extra character or space in there.
Secondly, make sure your server is shown as running, it won't appear if stopped.
Thirdly, make sure it's up to date, you can only join the server if you have the same version.
Go to the game panel and run either "Steam Update" or "Server Updater"
I clicked connect and it won't let me join because of the password I added to my server?

they have stated they will be adding a prompt that asks you for password in a future patch.
