There is no `/give`, no `/spawn`, no item-ID argument and no cheat menu in the dedicated server. The vanilla command set is server management only — kick, ban, broadcast, teleport, save, shutdown — and no amount of admin authentication unlocks a second, hidden list. What you *can* do on a [Palworld server you control](/games/palworld/) is change how generously the world hands things out. That route works for everyone at once, needs no mods, and survives every update. ## What You Are Trying to Do, and What Actually Works | What you want | Vanilla command? | What actually works | |---|---|---| | Give yourself a specific item | No | Client-side mod (your game only) | | Spawn a specific Pal | No | Client-side mod (your game only) | | Give another player an item | No | Nothing — client-side mods cannot reach them | | More loot from defeated enemies | No | `EnemyDropItemRate` | | More yield from ore, trees and nodes | No | `CollectionDropRate` | | More wild Pals in the world | No | `PalSpawnNumRate` | | Easier Pal captures | No | `PalCaptureRate` | | Faster levelling | No | `ExpRate` | | Faster egg hatching | No | `PalEggDefaultHatchingTime` | | Bigger crafting throughput | No | `WorkSpeedRate` | Every key in the right-hand column lives in `PalWorldSettings.ini` and applies to every player on every platform, including Xbox and PS5 players who cannot mod at all. [Palworld Dedicated Server World Settings Explained](/knowledge-base/palworld/world-settings/) documents each one, and the [Palworld server settings generator](/tools/palworld/server-settings-generator/) will build the file for you. > [!NOTE] Rates are the server-side substitute for spawning > An owner who wanted to hand out a rare drop gets closer to what they meant by doubling `EnemyDropItemRate` than by chasing a command that does not exist — a world that feels generous to everyone, rather than one admin with a full inventory. ## Where Palworld Item and Pal IDs Actually Live Palworld does carry internal identifiers, in data tables inside the packaged game files — items in `DT_ItemDataTable`, Pals in `DT_PalMonsterParameter`, both under `Pal/Content/Pal/DataTable/`. What it has nowhere for is typing one in. **Nothing in vanilla Palworld reads an item ID from a chat box**, so a list of them has no vanilla use. Mods and save editors consume them; the game does not. Two traps if you go looking anyway: - **The ID is not the name.** Pal identifiers are internal code names — Lamball is `SheepBall` — so a list of display names is not a list of IDs. - **They are not stable.** Internal IDs can change on any game patch, which is why community ID references carry a version stamp. There is no official Pocketpair list of item or Pal IDs; the well-known references are fan-maintained. > [!NOTE] The one official ID list Pocketpair publishes > Technology IDs are the exception, and they are the only IDs a server owner actually types. `DenyTechnologyList` in `PalWorldSettings.ini` blocks specific technologies by ID — `DenyTechnologyList=("PALBOX","RepairBench")` — and Pocketpair publish the full Technology ID table in their server documentation. ## Worked Example: A Higher-Loot Server Without Mods 1. Stop the server. Editing `PalWorldSettings.ini` while it runs gets your changes overwritten on shutdown. 2. Open the **File Manager** and navigate to `Pal/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/PalWorldSettings.ini`. 3. Change `EnemyDropItemRate=1.000000` to `2.000000` and `CollectionDropRate=1.000000` to `2.000000`. 4. Keep the whole `OptionSettings=(...)` block on one line, with no spaces around the `=` signs. 5. Start the server and confirm the new rates in-game. A syntax slip here throws no error — the server silently discards the whole block and runs on defaults. If nothing changed, check the syntax first. ## Where This Goes Wrong - **You installed a spawner mod and expected your friends to see the items.** Nearly all Palworld mods are client-side. A UE4SS cheat menu changes your machine and nothing else; items you conjure exist in your session only. - **You are on a console.** Xbox, Game Pass and PS5 players cannot mod Palworld at all — there is no writable game folder and no Steam client. Server settings are the only lever that reaches them. - **You are on our Linux servers and looking for server-side mods.** Pocketpair's own line is "At this time, server-side mods work only on the dedicated server with **Windows** edition." A Linux server runs the vanilla command set and nothing more. - **You used a mod on an official server.** Pocketpair's mod guideline says "Enabling mods when connecting to official servers is strictly prohibited", with account suspension listed as a possible consequence. - **A mod worked before the last patch.** Palworld updates routinely break mods, and Pocketpair's guidance is to remove mod files entirely before patching rather than disabling them. ## Common Questions ### Does Palworld have a command to spawn items? No. The built-in admin commands are server-management only — there is no official command to spawn items or Pals, and no ID argument anywhere in the set. See [Palworld Admin Commands & Moderation Guide](/knowledge-base/palworld/admin-commands/) for what the command set does cover. ### Can you spawn Pals in Palworld? Not with a command. Pal spawning comes from client-side mods, and it affects only the machine running the mod. To get more Pals in the world for everyone, raise `PalSpawnNumRate` instead. ### How do I give myself items in Palworld single player? Through a client-side mod, usually a UE4SS-based cheat menu, or by editing the save. There is no console and no cheat code in the game itself — see [Palworld Single Player Admin](/knowledge-base/palworld/palworld-single-player-admin/). ### Is there a Palworld item ID list I can use? Not an official one — Pocketpair publish only Technology IDs. Community lists exist, but nothing in vanilla Palworld accepts an ID, so they are useful only alongside a mod or save editor. ### Can an admin give a player an item on a dedicated server? No. There is no command for it, and spawner mods are client-side, so they cannot place anything in another player's inventory. ### What happens if a spawner mod corrupts my world? Pocketpair are explicit that "issues that occur while using MODs, or modified game data, are not covered by support", so a world broken by a mod is yours to restore from backup.
