Overview
A known Palworld memory leak is triggered by the invader-enemy system. Disabling it can reduce RAM usage by more than half.
Step-by-Step Instructions
<ol><li>Stop the server from the control panel.</li><li>Go to the Startup section.</li><li>Find the bEnableInvaderEnemy setting and set it to False.</li><li>Restart the server and monitor RAM usage over the next hours.</li><li>Optionally set up automatic restarts for long-term stability.</li></ol>
Success
Players will no longer be attacked by groups of "Invaders" - a common cause of the leak and random performance drops.
