[Palworld] Summary of reasons why abandoned bases stop ｜ Reasons why nothing progresses and complete countermeasure guide

“I left it alone, but when I returned, nothing had progressed.”
When operating an abandoned base in Palworld,
Many players will face this problem at least once.

Actually,
In most cases, this is due to a design error or lack of understanding of the specifications rather than a bug.

This article explains
typical causes of abandoned sites and
specific solutions for each .

Cause 1: Pal’s route search has failed

What is happening

• Stop at the same place
• Rotate around
• Does not recognize work target

Main reason

• Aisle is narrow
• There are steps or slopes
• Many pillars, decorations, and fences

Treatment

• Widen the aisle
• Make it a complete planar configuration
• Remove decorations

In abandoned bases
People can walk = Pal can walk too .

Cause ② Work priority conflict

What is happening

• Changes frequently to other tasks
• Any work is half-finished

Main reason

• Multiple tasks can be done at the same time
• Using an all-purpose pal

Treatment

• Fixed to 1 pal 1 work
• Reduce work content
• Separate bases by role

Leave it alone
The less judgment you make, the more stable it will be .

Cause ③ Storage is full

What is happening

• Stop in front of the workbench
• Does not move while holding resources

Main reason

• Insufficient storage box capacity
• Storage is far away

Treatment

• Add more storage boxes
• Place right next to the workbench
• Separate by type

For abandoned bases
The correct answer for storage is “too much”.

Cause ④ Pal size and equipment do not match

What is happening

• Only certain pals do not move
• Large pal is clogged

Main reason

• Aisles and equipment are small
• Low ceiling

Treatment

• Large Pal is for outdoor use only
• Create an area exclusively for small pals

Size mismatch is
a common cause of suspension.

Cause 5: The equipment is located at the edge of the base

What is happening

• Pal goes out and does not return
• Disappear from work area

Main reason

• Equipment placement at the edge of the base range

Treatment

• Collected towards the center
• Leave the ends of the range blank

An abandoned base is
The more space there is, the more stable it becomes .

Cause ⑥ Processing load is too high

What is happening

• Total stop
• The longer you leave it, the worse it gets

Main reason

• High number of pals
• Too much equipment

Treatment

• Reduce the number of pulses
• Do not remove the equipment
• Split your base

The idea that more is better is not valid.

Cause ⑦ Problems when loading/reloading

What is happening

• Stops only after login
• Relocating it fixes it

Main reason

• Chunk loading problem

Treatment

• Lift all palls and return them
• Go back a little further from the base

Complete countermeasures are difficult, so
Check after startup is important.

Final checklist to prevent abandoned bases from being stopped

• Is it configured as a single road?
• Is there one work per area?
• Is there enough storage?
• Is the large pallet too tight?
• Is the equipment located at the edge of the base?

Summary: Stopping bases “make too many decisions”

• Complex structure
• All-purpose pal
• Too much stuffing

Just by reducing these,
the stability of abandoned bases will be greatly improved.
