How To Disable Structure Decay Outside of Bases on Your Palworld Server

Note:

This setting specifically affects structures built outside of the blue Palbox radius. Structures built inside your base do not decay by default and are instead governed by the BuildObjectHpRate and BuildObjectDamageRate settings. If you want to build permanent bridges or satellite outposts across the map, setting this to 0.000000 is the only way to keep them from breaking over time.

1. Log In to Your Panel

2. Stop Your Server

3. Select the ‘Files’ Tab

4. Open the ‘PalWorldSettings.ini’ File

Navigate to:

Pal/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/PalWorldSettings.ini

5. Adjust the Deterioration Rate

Tip: Use Ctrl + F to quickly find the required setting inside PalWorldSettings.ini

Search for BuildObjectDeteriorationDamageRate=

Deterioration Rate Reference Table

Setting Value	Decay Speed	Best Use Case
0.000000	None	Perfect for “Creative” servers or building map-wide paths.
0.100000	Very Slow	Gives players a long time to “repair” outposts before they vanish.
1.000000	Default	Standard decay keeps the world clean of random foundations.
5.000000+	Aggressive	For high-pop servers to quickly remove building grief/clutter.
