Complete Guide to Palworld Commands
Hello! In this guide, we'll explore what Palworld commands exist and how to use them. Let's get started!
What is an admin command in Palworld?
On Palworld dedicated servers (PC Steam version), administrators can execute in-game commands via chat, starting with /
. These commands allow you to control the server (teleportation, banning, global messages, etc.) and ensure smooth management of the multiplayer experience: practical for direct administration or during sessions with friends.
Activating admin status
- You must first set an AdminPassword in the server configuration file.
- In-game, open the chat (
Enter
) and type:
/AdminPassword <YourPassword>
- This password is available in your Settings tab in the panel. If the password is correct, you gain administrator privileges and can use all available commands.

Practical examples
Send a global message before maintenance:

Emergency save to prevent data loss:
Teleport a player to your area to show them a construction:
/TeleportToMe steam_12345678901234567
Ban a player who violates the rules:
/BanPlayer steam_12345678901234567
Scheduled shutdown with notification:
/Shutdown 120 Please log out within two minutes.
Tips and considerations
- SteamID or UID?
- You can use either the full SteamID (
steam_…
) or the player UID depending on the commands, both work the same. You can find it in the ShowPlayers
menu. - Impact on players:
/Shutdown
and /DoExit
cut the server session, always warn via/Broadcast
first.- Regular saves:
- Remember to execute
/Save
before any critical action (banning, shutdown, update…).
