Attach your co-op character, or unlink it again
PalworldGuideLink your co-op host character to your account after moving a world, and how to undo the attach if you change your mind.
Attaching links that character to you, and we take a snapshot of your world first. Nothing is lost while you decide.
Why this happens
How to attach your character
Join your server once
Pick yourself from the list
Confirm and restart
I know my Steam ID, let me enter it in the attach window.
I'll start fresh and changed your mind? The attach also lives in the Backups card in Server Settings: select the backup made when your world was imported and use Attach my character.
How to unlink or undo an attach
Right after an attach
Character attached with a Wrong character? option. That is the quickest undo.
Any time later
Server Settings and expand the Backups card to its full view. If a character is attached, you will see an Attached character section at the top with an Undo attach button.
Or restore the badged backup
Pre-attach snapshot badge. Restoring that backup does the same thing.
Deleting your character's file by hand does not give you a fresh start. The world still remembers the character, and the game will refuse to let that account join. Use I'll start fresh in the attach notice instead, or attach and then undo.
Re-uploading your world does not detach anyone. It replaces the whole world, including everyone else's progress.
There is currently no way to detach your account while keeping the world as it is. Undo always means rewinding to the pre-attach snapshot. If you need something more surgical, message us and we will look at your case together.
Discord or send a ticket from your dashboard. Include your server name and roughly when you attached, and we will find the right snapshot with you.
