Search Bar Function Issue.

labyrinthx|12/14/2025

Palia Map

In the past, when I typed in the search, it would bring up whatever I typed, no matter if it was spawned or not. I would use this to overwrite all my currently selected filters, to only show whatever I had searched for. Now, when I type something in the search, it only brings up things that are currently spawned in the area. So if I search for a Vampire Crab, and it's not currently spawned, it says "Nothing found" in the search results. It was so much easier to do a quick filter for one specific thing, using the search bar, rather than disabling all my filters, and then going through the filter list, to only select what I want to find. I hope this makes sense.

GG @LabyrinthX, you just advanced to level 1!

Does this behave the way you expect if you turn off live mode before searching?

labyrinthx12/14/2025

It does the same thing with live mode on or off.

this is also happening to me !!

jonghyunnie12/15/2025

it only changed within the last week or so... because i had no problems the last time i played with the map

winderine12/15/2025

Okay, Do you both also experience the situation where many nodes do not show up at all if you disable Live Mode? @LabyrinthX @greatest deepspace hunter. ♡

jonghyunnie12/15/2025

it wasn't showing anything no matter if it was in live mode

i just reinstalled the entire overwolf app and it seems to be working again so far

winderine12/15/2025

Great! I'm glad a reinstall of Overwolf fixed the issue. ...by any chance, have you ever closed Overwolf from the Task Manager, or are you always strict about shutting it down properly from the Task Bar Notification Area?

labyrinthx12/15/2025

Yes, if I disable live mode, nothing shows up on the map, even with all filters active.

winderine12/15/2025

Thank you for letting me know. Can you also try completely uninstalling and reinstalling the app?

labyrinthx12/15/2025

I just uninstalled it using the overwolf overlay in Palia, then downloaded and reinstalled it. It's still doing the same thing.

winderine12/15/2025

Right now I'm working on the concept that some file was corrupted, either during the update or by force-closing Overwolf. If this is the case, you may need to reinstall Overwolf, if that's possible. If not, try installing the Companion App. I am actually currently having this issue with the Companion App as well, so I'm planning to reinstall shortly. th.gl/companion-app

A fresh installation of the TH.GL companion app. Nodes were completely disabled by choosing "Show None" then completely re-enabled by choosing "Show All". While in live mode I can display searched nodes that are rendered within client render distance, however static mode is completely empty except for the treasure chests and specific locations. Also many of the nodes that are displayed as search results under both settings have nothing to do with the search terms.

This seems to be related to the issue where "nothing" (that is, only Locations Category, Flower Bloom Event Filter, and Treasures Category) show up in static mode even if no search term is in the search bar.
