Palworld - Allow custom PalId to be inserted.

PalworldRecently, myself included, there have been like some mods that would allow Pals to spawn in the overworld that otherwise wouldnt, maybe like scrapped or newly made pals be introduced via mod, or hell, even just good ole randomizer that allow Pals that dont normally spawn in overworld to spawn in. Thinking that, if the user know the PalId, that they can insert it into the map and it will help track down nearest Pal... be it custom or just from the game. Hell, it can even work where they can try to track NPCs that spawn in the world via Random Event, like Dr.Brawn, by inserting their "PalId" Fun for the whole family, I say.

MEE61/6/2026GG @Shy Corpus, you just advanced to level 4!
shycorpus1/6/2026Been meaning to get this mod anyways, lol... so I'll try it
shycorpus1/6/2026How do I authenticate for TH.GL, again?
shycorpus1/6/2026Nevermind
shycorpus1/6/2026dumb me figured it out
shycorpus1/6/2026Ok, yes... I can confirm that they use different blueprint than the default "Mutant"
shycorpus1/6/2026Also that PalSchema links them to different Blueprint asset.
shycorpus1/6/2026and I cant truly test it since Lunaris isn't trackable with the map to begin with because it isn't usually spawned in the overworld
shycorpus1/6/2026another reason for this request.
devleon1/6/2026Lunaris is a normal Pal ? I can add the support for all Pals
devleon1/6/2026To sum up: PalSchema is only modifying pals. The thgl app is detecting them as normal Pal. I think this is totally fine and no update needed?
shycorpus1/6/2026Yeah, Lunaris is a normal pal that only appears in caves and has one alpha variant that appears in sealed dungeons
shycorpus1/6/2026incorrect
devleon1/6/2026I will check if I can add the pals which are only available in dungeons
shycorpus1/6/2026Do you not see that these two new Pals have different blueprints?
shycorpus1/6/2026Normally, Lunaris is "BP_Mutant"
devleon1/6/2026Ok, so PMOD_... Are new blueprints?
shycorpus1/6/2026Yes. There are no Pals that have anything with "PMOD" In them... that is the modder's design choice to name those blueprints like that
shycorpus1/6/2026probably to help other modders to make sure that whatever they are finding... it wont be this file since they are mods
shycorpus1/6/2026and not from the original game
devleon1/6/2026But it's possible that modders select a different name without PMOD in it?
shycorpus1/6/2026yes. Modders can name their new files whatever they like as long as the data is able to locate it via directory.
shycorpus1/6/2026so trying to just locate "PMOD" also wont help
devleon1/6/2026Ok. What I can think of is to check if an actor has a palid to identify it as Pal and assign them to custom pal filter
shycorpus1/6/2026I mean... you could do... no... maybe complicated.
shycorpus1/6/2026In the game, there are two files to detect if a character is a Pal or NPC
shycorpus1/6/2026"DT_PalMonsterParameters" and "DT_PalHumanParameters" Dont quote me on the names, it is only on top of my head
shycorpus1/6/2026obviously Pals go in monsters and NPCs go to humans
shycorpus1/6/2026what it does is make sure that humans "ID" do not get mistaken as a PalId
shycorpus1/6/2026and instead gets flagged as "NPCID"
shycorpus1/6/2026each variant of each id for both side have a bool asking "isPal"
shycorpus1/6/2026Pals have it as "true" Humans have it as "false"
shycorpus1/6/2026I dont know if this helps
devleon1/6/2026Thx So if I can detect an actor which is a Pal, but not known by the app, I can assign them to custom pal filter
devleon1/6/2026This would be an easy solution
devleon1/6/2026Or maybe call it Unknown Pal
shycorpus1/6/2026I mean the easiest solution is have like a option to let the user just type down the PalId
shycorpus1/6/2026and it can be for both custom and normal pals
shycorpus1/6/2026this will be an advance option, though
devleon1/6/2026This is much more complicated. It would require to have frontend changes and updated communication with the apps
shycorpus1/6/2026Gotcha
shycorpus1/6/2026sorry mate... didnt think that
shycorpus1/6/2026what is the expression... "Easier said than done"?
devleon1/6/2026I think this is a rare use case, that's why I will implement the easier solution for now with an Unknown Pal filter
shycorpus1/6/2026also be funny and nice to it "accidentally" detect NPCs so we can make sure we dont get jumped by enemy NPCs
shycorpus1/6/2026or find like rare NPCs like Dr. Brawn
devleon1/6/2026This sounds like a different request. We can add NPC tracking anyway
shycorpus1/6/2026I was being silly, but it sill be nice. thank you mate
shycorpus1/6/2026I like to add that request, then
devleon1/6/2026@Shy Corpus Can you test this version and enable the new "Custom Pal" filter?
devleon1/6/2026I want to know, if new custom pals are detected
devleon1/6/2026dungeon pals are partially added too. I will continue tomorrow or later tonight
shycorpus1/6/2026Ok, so I have Direhowl and the new pal on my base... only Direhowl is listed on the map
devleon1/6/2026And you selected the new filter?
shycorpus1/6/2026yes
MEE61/6/2026GG @Shy Corpus, you just advanced to level 5!
devleon1/6/2026Please send debug logs. Click on the bug icon on the header (right side)
devleon1/6/2026Send it while you are near the undetected pal
shycorpus1/6/2026wont let me
devleon1/6/2026Enter something
devleon1/6/2026Or is there an error message
shycorpus1/6/2026it says to check console for details
devleon1/6/2026Share a screenshot please
shycorpus1/6/2026like it faled to send debug snapshot
shycorpus1/6/2026
shycorpus1/6/2026like this?
devleon1/6/2026Ok, I need to fix that first
devleon1/6/2026Not now
shycorpus1/6/2026Still mate, thank you for taking your time on this
shycorpus1/6/2026its nice
devleon1/6/2026Thx. I didn't install any mod yet
shycorpus1/6/2026I mean... true, but you are willing to work on it
shycorpus1/6/2026to me, trying is good enough
devleon1/6/2026We will get this implemented for sure ๐ I only need you to test 1-2 more versions
shycorpus1/6/2026... maybe I am not the only person who you can ask to test this?
shycorpus1/6/2026maybe others have similar or are willing to do similar mod test?
shycorpus1/6/2026Larger sample better result and all that
devleon1/6/2026Maybe. I think there is not much left for a working version
devleon1/7/2026Can you use this version and send the debug logs again (it's fixed in this version) when you are near-by a custom pal?
devleon1/7/2026And I think I found out why custom pal was not visible
devleon1/7/2026And I've added NPCs (static locations)
shycorpus1/7/2026This actually can be useful when finding quest giving NPCs
devleon1/7/2026Good! I will add live mode support too
devleon1/7/2026Please let me know if custom pals are detected now
shycorpus1/7/2026
shycorpus1/7/2026They are now... weirdly, though I am having problem with putting my map in overlay... so I am lucky that I have four monitors
shycorpus1/7/2026welp... time to butcher them since I spawned them
devleon1/7/2026Great to see that it's working!
devleon1/7/2026This sounds like a new issue. If you can't manage to put it in overlay mode, please create a new #โใปsuggestions-issues .
devleon1/7/2026Can you check if the NPCs are detected in Live Mode now?
devleon1/7/2026And could you share your log files when you are inside a dungeon? I could add basic dungeon support as well
shycorpus1/7/2026I will try as soon as I can... currently waiting for orders and can be called out from time to time... Will be able to give what you need at least by tomorrow
shycorpus1/12/2026Not sure what you meant by logs... but this is what I got in my Debugging tool and I sent a screenshot recently
shycorpus1/12/2026and yes, the NPCs do show up on the map
shycorpus1/12/2026also...
shycorpus1/12/2026any Pals that are technically on the game might be counted as Unknown since there are some that do not normally spawn on the map, like they are like Pals that are found in dungeons that you have working on your base
shycorpus1/15/2026Was this helpful?
shycorpus1/15/2026I hope it was. I would like to give any more info, just need to tell me how to grab it
devleon1/29/2026It was, sorry for the late response. But I was not able to finalize it. I need to continue another day
shycorpus1/29/2026just @ me with whatever else you need and I will help out
