¶ How to connect to a private server with password (<=v0.1.2.0)
- From the main screen, go to Join Multiplayer Game.
- From there, go to Community Servers and find one asking for a password (any server)
- Enter the password of the private server (the private one you want to join).
- When a popup "Connecting to Servername. Have Fun Proceed?" Appears, select "No".
- At the bottom bar of the servers list, enter the real IP address of your private server and click on "Connect"
- You're now inside the private server! Have fun
The UI is still a bit clunky and having to use that trick to join a specific server with a password is a bit of a hassle, but the devs will probably fix it later.
Since 0.1.3.0, you can directly put your password by ticking the "Enter Password" checkbox.
¶ How to update your server
¶ Using steam tools
Just update Palworld Server Tools on steam and that should do the job.
¶ Using SteamCMD (Linux)
Update by doing
steamcmd +login anonymous +app_update 2394010 validate +quit
If you're using a custom directory installation for your palworld server :
# First enter steamcmd
steamcmd
# Force install directory
force_install_dir /path/to/your/palworld/server/directory
# Anonymous login
login anonymous
# Update the server
app_update 2394010 validate
# Wait for it to finish, then exit
exit
Now you can launch your server again and it should work.
Make sure you make a backup of your server before updating.
