Players may have gotten started on a Palworld save they wish to have transferred to a dedicated server. The processes for doing so are currently being worked on, as when a player hosts a game in co-op, only the host save data becomes encrypted. This results in the host's data not transferring when uploading a save to a dedicated server.
Note: Transferring a co-op save to a dedicated server Does Not Transfer the Host's Progress! All other players who are connected to the save will retain progress.
Note: Make any backups locally to preserve server data.
Note: The server must be run once to generate this folder.
