Have your Palworld dedicated servers been crashing every few minutes? You’re not alone! A recent bug is causing havoc, but fear not, trainers! Here’s a temporary fix to keep your server thriving until the official patch arrives.
Palworld Dedicated Server Crash Fix
According to Reddit user eulabius, the issue occurs when the dedicated server file size approaches 60 MB, leading to crashes every few minutes. While creating a new world offers temporary respite, the bug rears its ugly head once the file size climbs again.
Fortunately, Reddit user Sage2050 has shared a fix that involves “pruning” your server using the Palworld server toolkit. Here’s the gist:
- Delete Unreferenced Items: Use the toolkit to identify and remove items not actively used in your world. This helps keep the file size manageable.
- Shrink level.sav: Reduce the size of your world save file (“level.sav”) to a safe level, well below 60 MB.

Sage2050 suggests this fix might also address memory leak issues. They report significantly reduced RAM usage after implementing the fix, suggesting improved server stability overall.
While this workaround offers temporary relief, remember that it’s not a permanent solution. Pocketpair will release an official patch to address the bug definitively. Consider this a helpful stopgap until then.
So, fellow Palworld server owners, don’t let crashes dampen your spirits! Utilize this community-made fix and keep your server humming until the official patch arrives. And remember, stay tuned for Pocketpair’s upcoming solution to permanently eradicate this pesky bug!
