Custom Caged Pals

[This mod has not been fully tested. You might have to start a new world for this mod to take affect. Although, it is possible that after you release "old" pals, your custom ones might take place instead. Multiplayer has NOT been tested. Use at your own risk.]

This mod allows you to customise the pals, that appear in cages inside encampments and dungeons throughout the whole map of Palworld 1.0. You can even change the range of levels they appear in.

Once you install the mod, it will be using the default game's list of caged pals. To change the pals, you have to edit the file at this path(default path for palworld steam location):

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Palworld\Mods\NativeMods\UE4SS\Mods\PalSchema\mods\CustomCagedPals

Open the folder "raw", and then edit the caged_pals.json file using Notepad or another Text editor. The fields that you can edit(do not touch anything else, it might break the game, make sure that spacing and symbols are exactly the same):

"PalId": "Bastet_Ice" "Weight": 1.0, "MinLevel": 1, "MaxLevel": 10

Each number represents an area and a pal. One area has many pals assigned. The pal is then randomly chosen based on the weight. By default, all weights are 1. If you want a certain pal to have a higher chance of being caged, increase the weight, for example to 2.0

To change what pals are appearing, you will want to look at website called https://paldb.cc/en/Pals_Table

There is a list of all available pals in the game with their Pal ID at the bottom, for example: RAID_NightLady

You can also change the minimum and maximum level pals you get after rescuing them from the cage. So if we make some changes, we get this result for first pal:

"1": { "FieldName": "Grass", "PalId": "RAID_NightLady", "Weight": 2.0, "MinLevel": 50, "MaxLevel": 60 },

This will overwrite the first default pal Bastet_Ice(Meow Cryst), instead you will find Bellanoir lady. Make sure the game is closed, save the file, launch the game.

If it's too complicated, put this file to mr. gpt and give gim the paldb.cc pals table website and tell him what pals you want, add the new file.

It will instantly work for a brand new world, but for an old world, you will have to rescue the old pals from the cage first for new ones to appear.
