🗺️ Steps to Unlock Your Map.

Note: This only applies if you do NOT want to use the "Restore Map" option. ⚠️ This will overwrite your current map progress with the fully unlocked map from PST.

1️⃣ Copy the Unlocked Map File

Copy the LocalData.sav file from Assets\resources\LocalData.sav.

2️⃣ Find Your New Server/World ID

• Join your new server/world.
• Open File Explorer and paste:

%localappdata%\Pal\Saved\SaveGames\

• Look for a folder with a random ID — this is your Steam ID.
• Open that folder and sort the subfolders by the "Last Modified" date.
• Find the folder that matches your new server/world ID.

3️⃣ Replace the Map File

• Paste the copied LocalData.sav into this new server/world folder.
• If prompted, confirm the overwrite to replace the existing file.

🎉 Done!

Launch your new server/world — your fog and icons will now match the unlocked map from the PST Assets\resources file.

Host Swap Process in Palworld (UID Explained)

Background

• Host always uses 0001.sav — same UID for whoever hosts.
• Each client uses a unique regular UID save (e.g. 123xxx.sav, 987xxx.sav).

Key Prerequisite

Both players (old host and new host) must have their regular saves generated.
This happens by joining the host’s world and creating a new character if none exists.

---

Step-by-Step Host Swap

1. Ensure Regular Saves Exist

• Player A (old host) should have a regular save (e.g. 123xxx.sav).
• Player B (new host) should have a regular save (e.g. 987xxx.sav).

2. Swap Old Host’s Host Save to Regular Save

• Use PalworldSaveTools Fix Host Save to swap:
  • Old host’s 0001.sav → 123xxx.sav
    (This moves old host’s progress from host slot to their regular player slot.)

3. Swap New Host’s Regular Save to Host Save

• Use PalworldSaveTools Fix Host Save to swap:
  • New host’s 987xxx.sav → 0001.sav
    (This moves new host’s progress into the host slot.)

---

Result

• Player B is now the host with their own character and pals in 0001.sav.
• Player A becomes a client with their original progress in 123xxx.sav.

---

Summary

• Swap old host’s 0001.sav to their regular UID save.
• Swap new host’s regular UID save to 0001.sav.

---

This process lets both players keep their characters and pals intact while swapping host roles.

• Load the game once to trigger an automatic structure update.
• Make sure the save was last updated on or after the latest game patch.
