Palworld Admin Commands: The Complete List
All official Palworld server commands with syntax: become admin, kick/ban players, teleport, save, shutdown — including RCON notes.
Becoming admin
You need a set admin password (at RespawnHost it’s a startup variable in the panel, see server setup). Then open the in-game chat (Enter) and type:
/AdminPassword YOURPASSWORDAll admin commands are now available to you.

/SaveNotes on RCON
- Via RCON, commands are sent without the leading slash (
Saveinstead of/Save). - Known limitation:
Broadcastvia RCON cuts the message at the first space — use underscores:Broadcast Restart_in_5_minutes. - Important: Pocketpair has officially marked RCON as deprecated — it is scheduled to stop working in an upcoming update. The official successor is the REST API (
RESTAPIEnabled, default port 8212, HTTP Basic auth). For day-to-day admin work, the in-game commands above are all you need.
What does NOT exist
A command like ChangeSettings (changing server settings at runtime) circulates in some guides — it does not exist in the official command list and does nothing. Change settings via the config editor and a server restart.
