Change Day & Night Speed on Your Palworld Server
How to adjust daytime and nighttime duration on your Palworld dedicated server.
Control how long days and nights last with separate speed settings for each.
Changing Day/Night Speed
- Stop your server
- In the XGamingServer Panel, click Files
- Open
Pal/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/PalWorldSettings.ini - Find and change:
DayTimeSpeedRate=1.000000
NightTimeSpeedRate=1.000000- Save and start your server
How It Works
- Lower values = longer (0.5 = days/nights last twice as long)
- Higher values = shorter (2.0 = days/nights pass twice as fast)
Common Configurations
| Config | Day Setting | Night Setting | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Normal | 1.0 | 1.0 | Default |
| Long days | 0.5 | 1.0 | Days last 2x longer, nights normal |
| Short nights | 1.0 | 2.0 | Days normal, nights pass fast |
| Permanent day feel | 0.1 | 5.0 | Very long days, very short nights |
| Fast cycle | 2.0 | 2.0 | Everything passes 2x faster |
💡 Tip: The most popular config is
DayTimeSpeedRate=1.0+NightTimeSpeedRate=2.0— normal days with short nights.
