Problem Description
Issue
Hi Hostinger Support,
I’m currently hosting a Palworld server with you and trying to apply custom settings by editing Pal/Saved/Config/WindowsServer/PalWorldSettings.ini. However, any changes I make (e.g., time speed, difficulty) are not taking effect when I restart the server — the game keeps reverting to default settings.
I’ve also tried pointing the GameUserSettings.ini to the custom config by adding:
ServerCustomSettingsPath=PalWorldSettings
But the issue still persists.
Can you please confirm if your system is overriding the PalWorldSettings.ini file or using a different startup method that ignores custom configs? Also, is there any way to enable persistent custom settings on the server?
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Reproduction Steps
- I logged into the Hostinger game panel and stopped my Palworld server before making any changes to avoid overwriting issues.
- I navigated to the path Pal/Saved/Config/WindowsServer/ in the File Manager and created a file named PalWorldSettings.ini (since it was missing), then added my custom game settings under the correct section header [ /Script/Pal.PalGameWorldSettings ].
- I also edited GameUserSettings.ini in the same directory and added the line ServerCustomSettingsPath=PalWorldSettings to make sure the server loads the custom config file on startup.
- After saving both files, I restarted the server — but the custom settings were not applied, and the server reverted to default values.
