Palworld Death Penalty Settings ini

You can customize the Palworld Death Penalty Settings ini by editing the PalWorldSettings.ini file, typically located in the server’s configuration directory.

Below is  a basic guide on how to modify these settings:

Access the Configuration File

The PalWorldSettings.ini file is located in the server directory, such as steamapps\common\PalServer\Pal\Saved\Config\WindowsServer\PalWorldSettings.ini for Windows servers or the equivalent directory for Linux.

Modify Death Penalty Settings

Open the PalWorldSettings.ini file with a text editor and locate the DeathPenalty parameter. You can set it to various options depending on your preferences:

• DeathPenalty=0 for no death penalty (players keep all items upon death).
• DeathPenalty=1 for players to drop only items.
• DeathPenalty=2 for players to drop items and equipped gear.
• DeathPenalty=3 for players to drop everything including all items, gear, and Pals.

Palworld Death Penalty Settings ini including other penalties

DeathPenaltyEnabled

This setting determines whether there is a penalty for dying or not. If set to true, players will face consequences upon death. If set to false, there will be no penalty, and players will respawn without any consequences.

DropOnDeath

This setting controls whether players drop their inventory items upon death. If set to true, players will lose all their carried items when they die. If set to false, players will retain their inventory after respawning.

DropPercentage

If DropOnDeath is set to true, this setting determines the percentage of items from the player’s inventory that will be dropped upon death. For example, setting it to 0.5 will cause players to drop 50% of their carried items.

RespawnDelay

This setting controls the time (in seconds) that players must wait before respawning after death. A higher value will result in a longer respawn delay.

RespawnAtBase

If set to true, players will respawn at their base or home location upon death. If set to false, players will respawn at the location where they died.

HealthPenalty

This setting determines the percentage of health that players will have upon respawning. For example, setting it to 0.5 will cause players to respawn with 50% of their maximum health.

HungerPenalty

Similar to HealthPenalty, this setting controls the percentage of hunger or food level that players will have upon respawning.

Players can modify these settings in the GameSettings.ini file located in the game’s configuration directory. It’s important to note that changing these settings may affect the overall difficulty and balance of the game, so players should adjust them according to their preferred level of challenge and gameplay experience.

Save and Restart the Server

After making your changes, save the file and restart the server to apply the new settings.

These adjustments allow you to control the level of challenge and risk for players on your server, influencing how punishing the game is when a player dies.

For a more user-friendly approach, especially if using a game hosting panel like Physgun’s Gamepanel, you can navigate to the configuration settings through the panel’s interface and adjust the death penalty settings directly there without editing the file manually.
