What's new
-
Version 1.3.0
- Stuck Pal Scanner 1.3.0
- New rescue messages
- - Added optional on-screen messages when a rescue starts and finishes.
- - Ground rescues and hunger rescues use separate messages.
- - Messages show how many Pals were found and moved.
- - Messages are shown only to players inside the affected base.
- - Messages can be disabled in config.lua.
- Better base detection
- - SPS now checks whether a player is actually inside a base instead of relying only on distance from the Palbox.
- - Bases enlarged by base-radius mods should now work automatically.
- - Underground checks can expand to cover these larger bases.
- - A safe distance check is still used if SPS cannot read the base boundary.
- Automatic server detection
- - SPS now detects dedicated servers and singleplayer automatically.
- - The old is_dedicated_server setting is no longer needed.
- - Dedicated servers receive ground scans and hunger rescue.
- - Singleplayer SPS prefers and keeps Palworld’s normal Pal deployment and uses SPS for hunger rescue only.
