The Palworld server is always live, and Pals stay active even when the player is offline. Pals may get stuck in an awkward spot and respawn in an area inaccessible to food or sleep. Pals also get lower sanity and become depressed as time passes without the player taking care of them. Remember to build sufficient food boxes and spas for Pals.
Note: Placing Pals in the Palbox before logging off or building a spacey base to avoid Pals from getting stuck will help.
