NOTE: DOES NOT SUPPORT CONTROLLER.
This mod vs private chest.

My mod:Anyone can deposit into this chest - Private Chest: Only the owner can deposit
My mod: Anyone can disassemble the chest - Private Chest: Only the owner can disassemble
Features
- Native-looking checkbox inside the chest UI — no overlay windows.
- Per-chest flags, saved per world. Multiple saves never share flags.
- Flags re-apply automatically on world load.
- When a flagged chest is dismantled or destroyed, its flag is cleaned up automatically.
- Optional global switch in the config to block every chest at once.
- Works on all chest tiers, including guild chests.
- Does not actually edit your chests. All items are safe.
- Stores blocked.txt (your chests) in your localappdata\Pal\Saved folder.
- For servers it detects where your save file should be saved and will save progress.txt there.
Requirements
- UE4SS — use the experimental release.
Installation
Extract the archive into your UE4SS Mods folder so you end up with:
Palworld/Pal/Binaries/Win64/ue4ss/Mods/NoPalDeposit/Scripts/main.lua
This includes an enabled.txt so activate the mod.
Remove the NoPalDeposit folder to uninstall — your chests return to normal behavior and no save data is affected.
Configuration (Scripts/config.lua)
- ToggleKey — hotkey for the open chest (default "F1").
- EnableNotifications — on-screen banner for hotkey toggles (default true). The checkbox itself is silent; the tick is the feedback.
- BlockAllChests — block every chest without flagging them individually (default false).
- RowLabel— the text on the "Pals can't deposit here" in chest settings, if you would rather it read in your own language. Then change this or if you want it to say something different. (default "Pals can't deposit here")
Only the host will need this mod unless other players wish to mark a chest as blocked/unblocked. Clients in multiplayer will not be able to see the option in Chest Security without having the mod installed.
Known limitations
- The checkbox can't be selected with a controller.
