Palworld allows you to customize the Pal capture rate on your server through the main world configuration. This guide explains where to find the correct configuration file in your ZapX customer account, which value to change, and how to apply the new capture rate.
After opening the correct file, you can adjust the capture rate to fit your desired gameplay balance.
Search for the PalCaptureRate entry in the PalWorldSettings.ini file and replace the value with your preferred multiplier.
For example:
PalCaptureRate=2.000000
This would double the capture rate compared to the default setting.
Use the following table as a rough guide:
| Value | Effect |
|---|---|
1.000000 | Standard Pal capture rate |
1.500000 | Slightly easier to catch |
2.000000 | Significantly easier to catch |
3.000000 | Very easy to catch |
Balanced setting
If you want to make catching easier without guaranteeing success, a value between 1.500000 and 2.000000 is usually a good starting point.
The following table summarizes the setting used for this change:
| File | Config key | Default value | Purpose | Restart required |
|---|---|---|---|---|
PalWorldSettings.ini | PalCaptureRate | 1.000000 | Controls the multiplier for the Pal capture rate | Yes |
