What's the problem?

Palworld has base raids and traveling merchants that should happen pretty often. It also fails at its own system, and for most bases, will never make these events occur. Depending on where you build, Palworld can end up with no usable invasion start point for your base inside its active raid-start range. Along with that, there are so many other checks that can prevent visits from happening. AND even when they do, there's only a few possible raids!

Raid & Trade Revival is built to fix this, and make the experience a blast.

This mod "repairs" the visitor system if it doesn't run correctly, alongside adding hundreds of new raids, and a new merchant spawning system. When the visitor request fails, RTR steps in and makes sure you're attacked. <3 After a raid visit, you're also guaranteed to have a merchant visit!

So how do raids work now?

Every 30 to 90 minutes, provided you have been in your base for a little bit, a raid can occur. This still follows the path of spawning a Negotiator, and paying them off or declining and fighting the raid.

For raids, the tiny vanilla selection is expanded into one of hundreds of possible raids, including:

• Regular Pals
• Alphas
• Corrupted
• Legendaries
• Tower Boss invasions
• And More!

Once the Negotiator is paid off, or the raid is completed, a reward merchant will spawn nearby and head towards your Palbox!

The idea is simple: Palworld already has the bones of a really fun invasion system. Raid & Trade Revival gets it working more reliably, gives it a massive amount of new content, and gives you an actual reason to let the bastards reach your base.

RAID REWARDS & BALANCE

Raid EXP scales with difficulty

Generated raids give completion EXP based on their progression grade, using Palworld's player EXP curve as the basis. The reward is only applied once per encounter.

Special raid Pals have their own balance

Some raid-specific Alpha, boss, and regular forms use separate durability and capture profiles so they're appropriate for an invasion. These are separate parameter rows. RTR does not overwrite the original field Pal or Tower Boss values. Legendaries, Predators, and other special pools also retain their own weighting instead of being mixed into normal raids at the same frequency.

[h1]Multiplayer & Compatibility[/h1]
[h2]Multiplayer / Dedicated Servers[/h2]

Raid creation and repair are host-only. The standalone game, listen host, or dedicated server owns the event. Remote clients cannot independently create duplicate raids.

For consistent raid data and localized names, use the same RTR version and compatible UE4SS / PalSchema setup on the host and participating clients.

Dedicated-server functionality also depends on the current UE4SS and PalSchema builds supporting that environment.
