Palworld server hosting from ElfHosted, built for families: the world and everyone's bases stay up whether or not the PC that started them is on, at a fixed address and port your kids' friends save once. It runs on backed up storage with restores you can do yourself, with no PC left on at home and no port forwarding to set up. It's the standard Palworld dedicated server, so everyone joins with an ordinary Palworld client on Steam, with nothing to install. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it. Every server comes with a private parent panel that ElfHosted built, by parents who host these at home, and only you can open it with your ElfHosted login. These parental controls show who's on now, and how long each player has played today and across the past week. Set a bedtime, with different hours for school nights and Friday and Saturday (pick your timezone first): everyone is warned in the game ten minutes before and again at one minute, then anyone still playing is sent home, and anyone who rejoins is sent home again within moments, until morning. Palworld has no way to bar the door outright, so bedtime is a repeated closing rather than a padlock, and we'd rather say so. Give a late pass for one night and tomorrow's bedtime still happens, or press Close it now. With ElfHosted on your phone's home screen and notifications allowed, you get a message when someone joins or leaves, and several friends arriving at once is one message. Invite someone writes the message for you: address, port and password, ready to send. Each server has its own generated password; changing it restarts the server to apply it. We do not read chat, moderate players, or vet who joins: this runs the household rule you already have, and it closes your server, not the internet. Start with a 7-day trial. ElfHosted is not affiliated with Pocketpair; the server image comes from the palworld-server-docker project. When Sam can't help, our team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project.
