List of Palworld Bugs
Glitching into the Map
Spawning Underground is an issue where players glitch into the map and stuck there, even after multiple times of respawning. For players who do not play in casual mode, their loot ends up stuck under the map after respawning. The only way to retrieve their item is to glitch underground to where the loot is.
| Steps to retrieve Loot left underground | |
|---|---|
| 1 | To glitch under the map and retrieve your loot, you must go directly above the spot where the loot is. |
| 2 | Summon a Mount Pal and Pull out a Meat Cleaver. |
| 3 | Butcher the Pal while Mounting the Pal, you will then glitch into the map (underground). |
| 4 | Collect loot and change world settings to casual mode. |
| 5 | Respawn in the game. |
Change settings to Casual Mode
Turn the game setting into Casual Mode to enable "Keep Inventory" for players. TThis prevents the loss of important items upon respawning, making gameplay more enjoyable and stress-free.

Floating Pals and Assets
After the Patch v0.1.4.0 update, players noticed a strange glitch where Pals and other objects like rocks appeared to be floating instead of properly positioned on the map.

There's a pesky bug in the game causing characters to get stuck in a T-pose during certain actions like riding Pals or constructing buildings. This T-posing issue, similar to the Flying T-Pose Bug, was addressed in the latest patch, so players can expect developers to fix it soon. Restarting the game or canceling the current action usually resolves the problem with the character model.

Pals Stuck in Combat Mode
After a raid, Pals sometimes become stuck in combat mode. One of the most recommended fixes is to use the Alarm Bell to switch all Pals from combat mode to work mode. The Alarm Bell is unlocked after reaching Technology Level 4. Other methods include waiting for another Raid and deleting your Palbox; both are risky and not advisable for players to do.
