This guide covers authenticating as an admin in-game and enabling RCON for external tools. Set the AdminPassword in Palworld Configuration Overview first.

In-Game Admin Commands

Connect, open chat with Enter, and authenticate:

Code
/AdminPassword YOUR_ADMIN_PASSWORD

Then:

Code
/Save                          Save the world immediately
/Info                          Show server info
/ShowPlayers                   List connected players
/KickPlayer <SteamID>          Kick a player
/BanPlayer <SteamID>           Ban a player
/TeleportToPlayer <ID>         Teleport to a player
/Broadcast <Message>           Server-wide announcement
/Shutdown <Seconds> <Message>  Schedule a shutdown with warning
/DoExit                        Force immediate shutdown

RCON

In PalWorldSettings.ini:

Code
RCONEnabled=True
RCONPort=25575

Restart. The RCON port uses your admin password. Connect with a Palworld-compatible RCON tool (community options exist on GitHub). RCON is handy for scheduled announcements and remote moderation. Palworld also ships a REST API (RESTAPIEnabled=True, RESTAPIPort=8212) that newer management tools use instead of RCON.
