Palworld – Auto Restart Dedicated Server on Windows

How to Auto Restart Dedicated Server

Since I couldn’t find any script online for how to auto save and restart your palworld server for windows. I made one. I have this running on a windows 2019 server. This will work with windows 10 & 11.

• First you will want to download a RCON client (I used ARRCON).
• Extract the Zip. I put the ARRCON.exe in my C drive. C:\ARRCON.exe
• Go to your PalWorldSettings.ini (located in PalServer\Pal\Saved\Config\WindowsServer)
• Right click it and edit. Find and Change RCONEnabled=False to RCONEnabled=True
• Set an AdminPassword look for AdminPassword=”PasswordHere”
• Save and close.

Open Notepad or Notepad++ input the following: (if you are not running this on the local server machine, change 127.0.0.1 to IP of machine that the server is on) (time is in seconds this one is setup for 4 hr restarts, change the 14100 to however many seconds you want the script to run)

:start

timeout 14100 > NUL

start ARRCON.exe -H 127.0.0.1 -P 25575 -p AdminPasswordHere "Broadcast ServerRestartIn5min."

timeout 240 > NUL

start ARRCON.exe -H 127.0.0.1 -P 25575 -p AdminPasswordHere "save"

timeout 5 > NUL

start ARRCON.exe -H 127.0.0.1 -P 25575 -p AdminPasswordHere "shutdown 60 ServerRestartIn1minLOGOUTNOW."

timeout 60 > NUL

start "" "location of your PalServer.exe"

goto start

Example of location of Palserver.exe:

• C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\steamcmd\steamapps\common\PalServer\PalServer.exe

If you start your server with a .bat file just change Palserver.exe to your .bat file name.

Example:

• C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\steamcmd\steamapps\common\PalServer\PalServerStart.bat

Save as ServerRestart.bat

Stat your server normally then run the serverrestart.bat
