Hello Palians!
We have received reports of players losing game data, and will be doing a hotfix to address them ASAP. 
Access to the game will be unavailable for an amount of time, and more details will be shared in this channel as we can share.
Start time: Around <t:1691017200:t>
End time: To be updated
(These times are local to the setting on your device.)
Have you been affected? Symptoms of this issue include:
- Losing inventory, tools, or backpack upgrades
- Objects on the housing plot disappearing
- Seeing "Failure to load player data!" as a message
We're aware of some server instability affecting some (but not all) folks. This may result is some crashes/disconnects. 
📣 Hotfix Update (@here)
⚠️ Palia will be starting Hotfix maintenance now to lower the number of folks who are affected by the progress bug.
We will update this channel again once Palia is back online. Thank you all for joining us on this pirate adventure! 🏴☠️
Hotfix Update
The issue is a lot more complex than anticipated, so we are doing our best to wrangle all these pesky chappas that tangled our servers! The maintenance is taking longer than expected, but we appreciate everyone who's kept calm and has been sending us support. 
We'll try our best to share more info when we can, but just know we're still looking into things. 
tldr: yes we're alive but like mushy banana, plz hold 🍌
Hotfix Update
As Asherelle mentioned, the complexity of this issue has the team in discussion about next steps. All of the warmth, kindness, and support you've shown us today has powered us forward, and we will be spending more time tonight investigating. Please stay tuned for more updates. 
@here <@&1136464455916589076> Please read carefully, as your character may be impacted 👀
📢 Hotfix Maintenance is Complete - But…
Good News: We are ready to proceed with testing servers, and have reopened Palia once again.
Bad News:❗We cannot guarantee a 100% fix. Please let us know if you see any loss of items, progress, or heck, even if a chapaa just looks at you funny (okay, don’t tell us that).
An additional note for those who were experiencing this issue previously:
⚠️ If you were impacted by the progress bug, your character progress will be reset.
The following only applies if your account was impacted by the progress bug:
⚠️ Refer A Friend decor (Chapaa Plushie and Fountain) and the Founder's Windmill will no longer be in your account. Our team is working to restore these back to you, but it may take us more time.
⚠️ **All purchased cosmetics, Refer a Friend cosmetics, and Palia coins will still be found on your account. **
⚠️ **Your character will begin at the Phoenix Shrine where you first emerged, fully reset. **
The following applies to everyone:
⚓ 🏴☠️ 🦜 You should now be able to log in, but please proceed at your own risk; it is perfectly okay to wait until we can confirm the fix is in. 🦜🏴☠️⚓

A small heads up that we've noticed something that has required us to adjust the value on some hunting skill related items in game. 
No update is needed as the change is already in effect, just FYI. Thanks!

📣 Maintenance Complete - BUT...
<@&1136464455916589076>
Hi Palians!
The hotfix maintenance has been completed, but with a major caveat. Unfortunately, we ran into critical issues that prevented us from implementing fixes. Instead, we have chosen to return to service, even if that means without the fixes. We will look to do the hotfix again at another time.
We understand this isn't the smoothest experience, but it's all part of Beta testing! You have been such an incredible community so far and we really appreciate that. Thank you. 
<@&1136464455916589076>
Our servers are experiencing some load issues with this wave of invites!
You may experience:
- Being stuck in a 'loading screen'
- Actions not registering
- Crashing
Our devs are actively triaging this situation now. Thank you for your patience, we will keep you posted on this situation!
Error Code 423?
This is our dedicated error for the above issue. Thank you for your patience! Drop a

📣 We are going into full downtime to resolve this issue, those who have not yet been kicked, will get kicked and removed from the game.
We do not have an ETA on resolution at this time, but we will be notifying you all as soon as we have more information for you.
Thank you for your patience!
The Story So Far:
A long time ago, in a Palia far far away...
Jokes aside, with our newest wave of invites your eagerness to join us hugged our servers to death. As I like to say 'server went kablooey'. Our servers began degrading and causing those load time issues + stuttering you may have experienced.
This didn't affect every player, but a significant amount, so we decided to pull the plug on all our servers to prevent them from spiraling to death.
We've stemmed that flow, and we're currently working on bringing our servers back up. We still don't have a solid ETA, but we will be providing more updates when we have them. Send devs your energy so they can work faster. 
@here <@&1136464455916589076>
📣 We have now returned Palia to live service, and you should be able to login.
Thank you all for your patience! 
And, while we were maintenancing the servers, we also managed to get a hotfix in! Here's what went in:
What is this hotfix addressing?
💥 Fixed some instances of crashing.
🔄 The Shipping bin is now providing accurate guidance on when you will receive your gold - you must visit your housing plot to receive gold from shipped items!
💬 Special items like the Founder's Windmill and Plushes can no longer be accidentally gifted to NPC's.
📝 Fishing and gardening accomplishments are now tracking correctly.
🍅 You can now harvest tomatoes as expected.
We appreciate all the reports we received in these, and continue to investigate other top hits like "can't move my treasure chests". We're on the case! (No pun intended?)
@here <@&1136464455916589076>
📣 At this time you will not be able to login - But if you're already playing you shouldn't be impacted!
⏰ This means you will see error code 423 when trying to login, and will not be able to login.
We're working to get Palia's servers back to stability, and get everyone logged in ASAP! Thank you all for your patience on this Saturday.

📣 We may have experienced a larger-than-normal server hiccup, causing disconnections and longer loading-screen times.
You should be able to still log in, or weather the queue to get back in!

We are aware of, and working to resolve, the following Known Issues:

📣 Known Issue Update
Hallo, everyone!
We're seeing a lot of Discord messages about furniture or other item thievery within Palia at the moment.
We are actively investigating the issue, though it seems to be pretty complicated and difficult to pinpoint. If you have been able to steal anyone's items, or if you've had anything stolen from you - especially furniture - please make a player support ticket so we can take a look at your logs: https://palia.info/psingame
Any data you can provide us is extremely helpful in tracking this issue down and solving it. Thank you!
Recommendation For Prevention:
🔹 When you are not tending to your Default home slot, switch to your second housing slot. This can be accessed through the H menu. (See picture below). Store your items on one slot, and switch to your "blank" slot.
Please note: Payments are processed through a secure third party system, Stripe, which is not connected to your game data.

<@&1136464455916589076> @here
📣 HOTFIX 0.166.2 HAS BEEN DEPLOYED
Palia has now returned to live service. Thank you for your patience! 
This hotfix includes:
🏠 Some updates to prevent housing plots from overlapping.
💥 Fixes to alleviate fishing-related server crashes and other stability issues.
🪂 Added preventative measures to housing plots that will make it more difficult for unwanted visitors to show up.
🎒 Updated inventory systems, which will prevent direct transfers between players.
As mentioned before, these are partial fixes and updates - rolling these out now helps us find additional issues down the line! If you continue to experience housing plot overlap issues please open a player support ticket: https://support.palia.com/
<@&1136464455916589076>
🧹 GENERAL UPDATE
We've seen a few questions following the hotfix - here's what we can share:
-
What caused the merging housing plot issue? On the day this issue occurred there was a rollback of a patch. We believe a small subset of player progress was impacted during this event which lead to the issue you are experiencing today.
-
I would like to request my character to be deleted to workaround some progress loss issues - will I lose my character name, Founder's Windmill, or Refer-A-Friend items? Part of the Player Support process is to note down the items you have (regarding the Founder's Windmill and Refer-A-Friend items) before deleting the character. All other items will unfortunately be reset. Character names cannot be secured, so the PS Team's initial response will include a confirmation of this with you.
-
Do I need to open a separate ticket for claiming my lost Founder's Windmill or Refer-A-Friend items? There's no need for a separate ticket! That will be included in the above character deletion request process with Player Support.
-
Are our reports useful? Is there anything else players can be doing to help? All context and logs provided through Player Support have been instrumental towards the investigation of root cause for all the issues hotfixed today! However, if anyone is reporting a new instance of any housing plot issues, please escalate it to our Support team: https://palia.info/psingame
Hope this helps! See you around Palia~

🚨 SERVER MAINTENANCE ALERT: HOTFIX 0.167.1 🚨
<@&1136464455916589076>
Palia's servers will be undergoing maintenance shortly.
Approx. Start Time: <t:1693580400:t>
Approx. End Time: <t:1693587600:t>
*This time is local to you!
This hotfix will look to fix a handful of issues. More information will be shared when possible. Thank you! 
📣 HOTFIX 0.167.1 HAS BEEN DEPLOYED
<@&1136464455916589076>
Palia has now returned to live service. 
This hotfix includes:
- 🍯 Fixed game crashes caused when using the Honey Lure
- 🎐Removed the seemingly random "chime" sound that plays throughout Kilima Village and Maji Market
- 🔪 Improved clarity for some cooking subrecipes that included mentions of ingredients not in the game
- 🛋️ Disabled "F to interact" prompts for certain décor items that were not actually functional
⚠️ We are also aware there may be some issues with the chat, and will be investigating.
Please note, our main target was to address the honey lure crash, though we also decided to include some other quick fixes as well! The team is working hard to address the issues reported to us by the community, but there are many reasons why some fixes may arrive sooner than others. Thanks for understanding. 🙇
As always, if you are experiencing any issues, please make sure to submit a ticket to player support: https://support.palia.com/
Have a lovely timezone~ 
<@&1136464455916589076> As of the 0.167.1 hotfix, we are seeing issues relating to the porch housing add-on and items being placed on it. We are currently investigating. 
<@&1136464455916589076> Based on the information we are receiving, our recommendation at the moment is to not interact/place items on the porch for the time being.
As always, please submit bugs over to https://support.palia.com/ as the first step! We have also opened #1147207342857928765 to facilitate discussion.
There is no ETA on a fix as we are still in the stage of collecting information. Thank you for understanding.
Edit to add: Not as pressing, but we are also seeing some objects like storage and crafters, when placed on the porch, looking rather flat. 
📣 TOMORROW: HOTFIX 0.167.2
<@&1136464455916589076>
Tomorrow, <t:1694100600:f> (*this time is local to you!) we will be rolling out a hotfix to address some early feedback and bug fixes for Maji Market, particularly the Chapaa Chase. 
This hotfix will include:
Chapaa Chase Updates
- More Chapaas now spawn at the beginning of the mini-game.
- 50% more Chapaas now spawn per wave, and with 20% more frequency.
- Increased the size of the spawn zones, and added more of them.
- Added 1 additional Chapaa Chase ticket for every Chapaa rescued per each player actively chasing Chapaas during that session. So if a whole group captures 100 total Chapaas, each player who captures at least 1 will get 100 extra tickets.
Update, <t:1694110140:f>: Additional Bug Fix
- Placing items on the Porch housing add-on no longer causes them to be moved somewhere else on the plot.
More details on this hotfix are threaded here 🧵 Read on to learn all the updates we’ve included!
<@&1136464455916589076>
📣 A minor clarification and an update to the above Hotfix for 0.167.2:
- The adjustments that will be made to the Phoenix Firework recipe will have no impact to the Phoenix Fireworks you have already crafted. Please see the threaded details above for more info on these changes.
- The maintenance time has been adjusted to <t:1694100600:f>.
Thanks, and we'll see you tomorrow!
🚨 SERVER MAINTENANCE ALERT: HOTFIX 0.167.2 🚨

Palia has now returned to live service! 
**Please find all the details of the Maji Market updates by clicking this message ➡ **#📢│palia-status message
We are also listening closely to your feedback on the pricing of food, fireworks and decor in the night market stores and Chapaa Chase ticket booth, as well as your requests for buying items with tickets instead of gold. While we won’t be able to make changes to this season’s game event, we are committed to finding a more suitable range of pricing and currency so that more people can enjoy. 
See you in the Maji Market! 
📣 EMERGING KNOWN ISSUE
<@&1136464455916589076>
The display for the Phoenix Firework at the crafting bench still reflects the old ingredients and amount. However, it will consume the new recipe's ingredients, and craft 1 Firework.
Update: Relogging will resolve this issue, and the recipe will now appear as expected.
We are also looking into other common issues for next week's update, and apologize for any frustration these are causing 🙏
📣 ADDITIONAL 0.167.2 BUG FIX IDENTIFIED
<@&1136464455916589076>
The latest hotfix included an additional resolution to a known issue:
- Placing items on the Porch housing add-on no longer causes them to be moved somewhere else on the plot.
We apologize this wasn't included in our original message. As mentioned previously, we are still looking into other common issues for next week's update, and will provide more details when we have them to share!

**The latest patch has revealed an unexpected bug: **
Upon login, you will receive the following message:
"Items Disabled. One or more of your clothing items needed some mending. You've changed into another outfit for the time being."
Please note: There are no changes to your outfits or items. This message is also not intended for a future mending feature. It is an error message created for possible situations where there might be an issue with a clothing item that needs to be disabled.
We will be updating this thread, as well as the Patch Notes, with any other emerging bugs. Thank you all for your understanding!
📣 WE ARE ACTIVELY INVESTIGATING SERVER ISSUES
<@&1136464455916589076>
We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to solve this. We will update this channel when we have more to share. Thank you for your patience!
📣 0.168 Emerging Known Issues
<@&1136464455916589076>
Some menus are not currently closing with the ESC button.
Multicrafting XP only applies to one item when crafting batches of furniture and decor.
- This is not intended, and will be fixed in a future update.
Framerate has been set to Unlimited by default in your settings.
- You can update your settings to your preferred framerate; However, while your settings changes will apply, the UI will still show as Unlimited.
- This is a separate issue from other performance and lag issues, which are currently being investigated.
** The time it takes to cast out your fishing line has been increased, and the camera pan when reeling your fish in has been slowed.**
- This change is intended, and was made based on player feedback regarding accessibility. The camera also no longer moves to the right as you reel your fish in, as that caused the rod to briefly block the reticle.
The “Collect the Flowstone near an exit” step in the quest “Plumehound Pilgrimage” is hard to complete as the item may not appear as expected.
- This seems to affect only certain players.
Upon login, you will receive an unexpected “Items Disabled” message.
- The message reads: "Items Disabled. One or more of your clothing items needed some mending. You've changed into another outfit for the time being."
- Please note: There are no changes to your outfits or items. This message is also not intended for a future mending feature. It is an error message created for possible situations where there might be an issue with a clothing item that needs to be disabled.
We are actively working on the issue of server instability and lag.
This is especially noticeable upon login, when changing servers, and placing items.
There are a few more issues we're seeing pop up, and we will continue to monitor chat and #1135683325227446393 for details. 💜
<@&1136464455916589076>
Hello Palians!
We are aware of the various issues that have been introduced as of 0.168 (please see previous messages for context and details of the ones that are top of mind for us).
#📢│palia-status message
We are continuing our investigation to properly resolve these issues, and player reports have been a huge help to the development team! While we cannot give further details right now of when or what it will entail, please know we are looking to have a hotfix sometime this week. We will share more information as soon as we can.
Thank you.
<@&1136464455916589076>
Our team has made good progress on many of the needed fixes; However, we are still working to resolve the most critical issues, and we will need at least another day before we can move forward with a hotfix.
Please know that we want to resolve these issues, but we want to do it right, and that takes time. 
Thank you for understanding, and we'll be sure to share more information tomorrow.
# 🚨 SERVER MAINTENANCE ALERT: HOTFIX 0.168.1 🚨
<@&1136464455916589076>
Palia's servers will be undergoing maintenance shortly.
**Approx. Start Time: **<t:1694732400:t>
**Approx. End Time: **<t:1694739600:t>
*This time is local to you!
This hotfix will include fixes to the missing Flowstone for the **“Plumehound Privilege” **Quest, missing items in your housing plot, improvements to performance, and more.
There will also be ongoing adjustments to furniture multicrafting XP and other future fixes that we will expand on once maintenance is complete.
Thank you so much for your patience on this! We appreciate you all. 
📣 HOTFIX 0.168.1 HAS BEEN DEPLOYED.
<@&1136464455916589076>
Palia has now returned to live service. 🎉
**Full List of Fixes: **
- ♻️ Items that may have gone missing as a result of issues such as with the Hallway add-on will now return - they will appear right at the front of your housing plot, so please don’t be alarmed if you see a clutter of items suddenly appear there!
- 🎞️ We have tuned some graphics settings for better frame rate improvements.
- 💎 You can now properly collect the Flowstone located by the exit in the "Plumehound Pilgrimage" Quest!
- 👗 Players should no longer receive an error message indicating their clothing needs to be mended at login.
- 🪴 Grass should no longer peek through your gardening plots or other decor placed on the ground in your housing plot.
- 🔥 You should now be able to offer whole heatroot instead of chopped heatroot for the Fire Temple bundle.
- 🧑🍳 The Cooking UI should no longer disappear while cooking.
- 🧑🌾 We have doubled the amount of seeds that corn and spicy peppers give you, bringing them more in line with the other fruits and vegetable seed values.
We wanted to also call out a fix-that-turned-into-an-unintentional-buff: **
Multicrafting will now award XP for every crafted item, however, multicrafting furniture you have never crafted **before now gives too much XP.
This will be corrected in a future hotfix or full patch, but we wanted to be clear in advance that this is unintentional and we are aware of it.
We know these fixes do not address every issue players are seeing and we are still looking into a number of them, including but not limited to:
- The ongoing issues with achievements, including Maji Market stamp cards.
- The ESC button does not consistently exit out of menus.
- The lag spikes that players are experiencing, especially while moving furniture or cooking at their homesteads.
Thank you all for your time, feedback, and patience! We hope to see you in Palia soon. ♥️
<@&1136464455916589076>
Hi everyone!
This is a quick check-in to inform you that we are working on another hotfix for next week.

Hi everyone!
We know the above known issues are still top of mind for many of our players. While I don't have any major updates at this time, here are some additional notes I want to share with you:
- We are continuing our work into finding fixes for the emergent issues identified yesterday. Please see Amelia's update here to read more: #📢│palia-status message
- The Housing Lag issue in particular is a priority for us to fix, but it will take some time to get it right. While we likely won't see this in our first hotfix for 0.169, we are committed to getting this fixed by 0.170.
- Even though the lag issue is proving to be tougher to conquer, there are other fixes we know will improve the quality of life for our Palians. A hotfix is incoming, likely within the next few days. We are working on a timeline and list of included fixes and we hope to have that for you soon.
We are continuing to monitor these and any further emerging issues. Thank you so much to everyone who has already reached out or created a support ticket. If you are experiencing any major blockers, please be sure to create a support ticket here: https://palia.info/psblocker

📣 0.170 Emerging Known issues
Hi, Palians! We are actively investigating these emerging issues from 0.170:
- Different instances of the mouse or UI disappearing, or affecting the way the camera moves.
- The Koi Pond decor is visually broken, showing grass spilling into the water and the water being shifted slightly “up”.
- When running the Obstacle Course, players are being bounced back to the beginning after passing the 3rd book near the tilted mushrooms.
- The Disciple and Stately Sage cosmetics are missing textures on one half of the outfit.
- Some reported issues of insects disappearing into surrounding terrain when trying to catch them.
- Some reports of the Request System UI being empty, or reset, until picking up items from chests.
- Porches/doors/fireplaces still count if players try to add them after you reach the 15 room add-on limit.
- As a work around, if players pick up 1 building they should be able to continuously add more of these assets that cost 0.
And now for the Elephant in the room hallway: Hallways still contribute to the building limit on your housing plot, and that is intended to remain. This miscommunication was on the CM team side when we wrote the patch notes - it’s our fault. We misread a ticket, got excited, and we’re incredibly sorry. We promise to be more diligent when checking our sources in the future. 🙏 
⚠️ QUICK OBSTACLE COURSE SERVER RESTART ALERT
<@&1136464455916589076>
We will be restarting the Obstacle Course servers in about 10 minutes, which should resolve the issue causing players to reset their progress when reaching a certain mushroom 🍄
Note: This will only impact players currently in the Obstacle Course. No other areas of Palia will be affected.
We recommend exiting the Obstacle Course for easier re-entry. We will provide another update as soon as the Obstacle Course servers are back online.
Please hang tight! 
📣 OBSTACLE COURSE SERVERS BACK ONLINE
<@&1136464455916589076>
Players should now be able to progress past the mushroom reset and climb all the way to the top of the Obstacle Course!

The list below includes the emerging issues found here: #📢│palia-status message
- Different instances of the mouse or UI disappearing, or affecting the way the camera moves.
- The Koi Pond decor is visually broken, showing grass spilling into the water and the water being shifted slightly “up”. This will be fixed in 171.
When running the Obstacle Course, players are being bounced back to the beginning after passing the 3rd book near the tilted mushrooms.This has been fixed!- The Disciple
and Stately Sagecosmetics are missing textures on one half of the outfit. Update: It is only the Disciple outfit, but some confusion was caused from pieces of the oufit being mixed and matched. - Some reported issues of insects disappearing into surrounding terrain when trying to catch them.
- Some reports of the Request System UI being empty, or reset, until picking up items from chests.
- Porches/doors/fireplaces still count if players try to add them after you reach the 15 room add-on limit. As a work around, if players pick up 1 building they should be able to continuously add more of these assets that cost 0.
NEW:
- Obstacle Course: Periodically, moving tiles will "desync" their position.
- Placing food inside pantries is inconsistent, especially with food in bowls.
- The FOV slider is sometimes causing an "Ultra Zoom" perspective.
- The Dragon Shrine chest does not appear as expected after interacting with all 4 incense shrines.
- The "Will You Be My Shepp?" prompt commonly disappears. Relogging may help.
- Text for "Fishing Cast Speed" reads: Controls the volume for all audio in game.

<@&1136464455916589076> Hello Palians!
We're aware of some login issues with the game right now.
If you are experiencing an error like the one pictured in the image when trying to log into the game, know we are currently looking into it!
Thanks! 
While we are investigating a solution, it is possible to run Palia directly from this file path:
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Palia\Client\Palia.exe
⚠️ Note: it requires you already having Palia updated to the latest version to enter the game!
Otherwise, please hang tight~ Thank you everyone for your patience in the meantime. 
<@&1136464455916589076>
**Palia is back online for most players! **
⚠️** Note:** If you have not updated to version
0.171, you will continue to experience the issue outlined here: #📢│palia-status message
We will provide more details when all players are able to re-enter the game!
Palia is now able to be downloaded and/or updated for all players.
Thank you for your patience!

📣 0.172 Post-Release Update
<@&1136464455916589076>
Character Customization in Jel’s Shop
- If a player has updated their style in the Wardrobe of Jel’s Shop, and then interacts with Jel’s Mirror, the character customization cooldown may be triggered. This can occur even if changes have not been made to the character's appearance.
- In some instances (particularly when using a controller), players will customize their character, then back out of the Mirror without selecting the “Commit” button. However, they will find the customization still commits to their character.
We had found a fix for the first issue, and will be including it in a future update!
For the second issue, please continue to submit tickets to Player Support. Any information you provide, including whether you are using a controller or keyboard, will be very helpful in our investigation!
Quest Improvements
- Some players were not receiving the Ancient Battery quest, in addition to a few other quests, from Jina. Many of these accounts have been fixed. If you wre one of the players previously effected, you will receive some surprise mail!
As always, the very best way to ensure your bug report or technical issue is being tracked is to submit a ticket to Player Support here:

0.173 Extravagant Expectations Bug
Hi folks!
We are aware of an issue that results in players being unable to progress if the dialogue option "No, I'm not ready" is selected during the Extravagant Expectations (Subira) questline.
- For those who have yet to reach this point, we highly advise** not to select this option** to avoid the lock out.
- For those who have been affected, please make sure to submit a player support ticket if you haven't already. While we cannot give an ETA on the fix yet, it's certainly something on our radar.
Thanks!
<@&1136464455916589076>

Okay cool folks I think the collective hype from all the players spooked our servers so we're giving them blankets and hot chocco.
Serious ver: We're aware of connectivity issues and are currently investigating.
<@&1136464455916589076>
Things sure have been pretty crazy here at S6 and for Palia!
Looks like we're going to have to bring servers back down again to properly investigate things. 
I'm wishing all the best for our devs who've been at it for a full day now! Thanks everyone for being understanding during this time~
<@&1136464455916589076>
Hi folks! We are still investigating issues.
Things are looking pretty hot in the server rooms, so the we've been passing around virtual lemonades to keep the devs cool (since we're a remote studio and all that). 🍋
As always, thanks everyone for being understanding throughout this long downtime. Don't be afraid to call it for the night/day and come back at another time if you need to!
- CM Team
<@&1136464455916589076>
We have identified the issue and we're looking to resolve things~ 
It's a bit of a process so it might longer before things are safe and clear, but as always, this is the channel to look at for the latest info! 📻
<@&1136464455916589076>
Boop!
Have you ever had one of those days where's like, wow? When is it going to end? Well, this is one of those days for us. Not going to hide that. 
That said, we know lots of people are looking for the next update - thanks for all the warm wishes sent our way and support from those who've been waiting patiently.
We're still tackling things, figuring out the best path forward, and will continue giving updates when we can.
Let's cheer not only for the devs, but for every Palian who's been bringing the positive energy beyond the game and here to this community.
Stay awesome! 
<@&1136464455916589076>
Hello, folks!
We are happy to say that Palia is back up~
Is this the longest downtime we've had yet so far? Thanks for being part of a bit of Palian history! 
We'll be keeping an eye on things as players log back into the game, but for the most part, our devs are calling it a night. Phew!
Have a wonderful timezone, everyone. 
<@&1136464455916589076>
Our devs have indeed stopped poking at the chappaa this evening, but I wanted to highlight some of our top known issues emerging from this downtime, which may impact your gameplay:
- The esc menu is quite laggy (still).
- The main menu is also laggy, especially when navigating quests.
- The esc menu does not seem to be saving any changes you, the player, makes. This means sound, graphics, and other settings are not properly saving, causing people who cannot play on higher settings to be unable to play.
We are going to be jumping right back in again as soon as the rooster (do roosters exist in Palia
) crows! We appreciate your patience with us while we experience these bugs together tonight. ❤️
<@&1136464455916589076>
Hi folks!
This was a tough call for us to make. But our team will be calling it a night. 
We're aware of emerging issues with the patch, and will be resting up to assess things with fresh eyes in the morning.
If anything, it's been a memorable day. Thanks for being part of it. 
See you soon!
Good morning and happy timezone, Palians!
<@&1136464455916589076>
The dev teams are back at their desks with their coffees or teas and tackling the to-do list for today.
The CM team is buzzing around like busy little Bahari Bees keeping an eye on everything, and we'll post updates as we get them - remember to sign up for the "Game Status" role in id:customize if you want that direct ping!
As always, thank you for your patience and good humor. 
And now, back to work! 🐝
Pingless update --
We are aware of the crashing issues, and connection to server issues, and I'm currently installing IV drips of coffee and tea to our devs who are fearlessly tackling these problems!
As soon as we have more info about the path forward, we will let you know! ❤️
IT'S TIME FOR 0.174: HOTFIX EDITION!
Ahoy, <@&1136464455916589076>!!

0.175 Known Issues Updates
<@&1136464455916589076>
Hi all! We’re tracking these emerging known issues for 0.175:
- There are no snowballs for purchase in the seasonal store. 😭
- While we wait for our stock of snowballs to arrive, we’re granting every player 100 snowballs to tide you over. These will be available in your NEWS tab upon logging back into Palia.
- The snowballs come in stacks of 10, so make sure you have 10 free slots in your inventory to claim them!
- Some players are not receiving the Temple of the Gales quests after getting letters from Elouisa and Caleri.
- Climbing on vines and surfaces in the Temple of the Gales is notably janky.
- Some players are stuck in Eshe’s anniversary party cutscene. If this has happened to you, please file a support ticket - instructions are below!
- Some players are getting a popup that says their clothing needs to be repaired upon logging in. This error message is a false alarm and should not affect your gameplay whatsoever.
If you experience any of these issues or an issue we haven’t listed here, please be sure to create a support ticket at https://support.palia.com - this helps us pinpoint exactly what’s going on!
Thank you so much! 
<@&1136464455916589076>
Hi folks! We're doing some work behind the scenes that should vastly improve the climbing experience in the Temple of the Gales.
This, however, will require a brief server kick to everyone, and you will need to log back in again.
Brace for impact! 

Yo, it's me again! Pingless notice - we're doing some behind the scenes work on our servers tonight to prep for tomorrow! This will boot you out of the server in the next few minutes, but you can log back in again right after. See you guys tomorrow!

Hi folks! Happy Switch-mas~! 
We are currently investigating issues on the Switch relating to account-linking/services. The current recommendation is to please hold momentarily. Woah, thanks for all the hype, though!
More information will be shared when we can. Thanks! 
Hello Palians!
This is a pingless update for those waiting on the Switch
. Looks like our lovely devs have found a lead we're looking into, but it might take some time for us to tackle.
⚠️ We highly recommend players to please hold on any account linking steps in as we work to resolve the login issues.
Thanks! 
<@&1136464455916589076>
We have managed to resolve some things and players affected by login messages on the Switch (especially if you were in EU or APAC region) should be able to log in!
Still running into issues? Player Support is there for you ! 
That said, we are also looking into some other emerging issues related to:
- The Froggy Bucket login reward not being sent
- Twitch Drops showed as claimed but not appearing in the account
Rest assured, we're looking to make sure everyone gets their goodies! Thanks. 
Update 1:
The Freshly Painted Froggy Bucket reward should appear...after a while. 📫
He's just taking his time to get to your News Inbox. 🐸
Please give it a few hours, give or take, for the reward to show up!
Still running into issues? 👉 Player Support
Update 2:
After chasing some pesky chapaas around, we've finally found a fix for Twitch Drops! 
If it shows as "Claimed" on Twitch, you should now be able to find it in your News tab in your Inventory!
- A re-log/restart of the game might be needed, and in some cases, it might take a few hours to show up from when it is marked as claimed.
- Yes, we're aware the Palcat Party Small rug is missing an icon (shows up as a yellow ? in-game)...but let's just say grimalkin deals may have been made to get in the fix.

As always, the best way to report issues is to head on over to our Player Support if you're running into any problems~

Hello, Palians! 
This is a message that’s been meaning to get out sooner, but better late than never, am I right?
We’re aware of ongoing issues regarding cross-server communications and travel/syncing experiences.
This has been a big issue we’ve been tackling behind the scenes and will continue to look into as one of our top priorities. That said, as mentioned in our Message from the Studio section in our 0.175 Patch Notes, we are going into Winter Break at the studio, so traction will be slow for the time being as our devs rest up!
Once we get back, though, we’re looking to really tackle things full speed ahead. ⛵ And expect updates from us as soon as we can share it out to you all.
Thank you all for your efforts in raising this concern to us, and rest assured we want to do our best to resolve things so Palians can play together across the world. 
Sincerely,
S6

Hi folks! 
This is a quick pingless update to share that we are aware of sudden long queues happening at certain times. We're currently investigating, but don't have more details as it's a bit of a doozy. But any updates will be shared when we can, of course!
Thanks!

This will result in a game-wide kick to all players currently, but you should be able to hop right back in!
Thanks!

We are doing some final checks, making sure things are stable enough and looks good! Just 30 more minutes. 🤞
Heya folks - for
Nintendo Switch users, if you are not seeing the update automatically, you can try to make it look for the update with the following steps:
- With Palia selected on the menu, press the "plus" ➕ button to bring up more information.
- There should be a tab with "Software Update"
- Click on "From the Internet" and it will check - the download should start then!
Yes I am aware the smoke looks funny no need to send screenshots pls

Hello players! We have identified a severe issue that is impacting players. It's going to require us to shut down servers in the US Region 🌎 which mean you might not be able to log back in or even be kicked out entirely. Apologies for the sudden disruption. We are still investigating.
More updates will be shared as soon as we can.
We are gradually letting folks back in, and watching to see if anything develops. 
<@&1136464455916589076>
Hello folks! We are aware of a couple of issues emerging from the patch. Right now things are a little
if ya know what I mean so it might be messy/hard to communicate out everything, but please rest assured we are checking and aware of the issues.
As always, please make sure to direct folks to submit player support tickets. It helps us gauge volume, severity, and there might be new details shared that could help us investigate!
⚠️ PSA: One of the issues includes the fact that Star Quality Taiyaki from the Maji Market (Zeki's stall) is not currently obtainable.
More info to be updated when we can. Thanks for understanding~
<@&1136464455916589076>
Good timezone, Palians!
Some of you may be experiencing long loading times, or being unable to login at all - We're currently investigating and hope to get you in as soon as possible! 
Make sure you get a cozy cup of beverage while you wait! ❤️
Small update!
Our devs are still hard at work investigating the issue, though we know that this has been resolved for some! We'll send out a ping when it's fully resolved. 
<@&1136464455916589076>
Heya, Palians!
We are currently investigating some reports of players being unable to start hotpot games, getting stuck while currently in a game, and other general server instability while at the Maji Market. Any updates will be shared when we can. 
As always, if you are running into issues, please make sure to submit to our player support site. Thanks!
<@&1136464455916589076>
Hi Palians 
Two things:
- The issue with our hotpot (starting, stopping, joining etc..) Seems to be resolved and you should be experiencing a much smoother time cookin' up a storm with your pals!
- You may have noticed a sneaky gift in your News of 10x cabbage seeds. (You can, because it was TOTALLY intentional ahhaha wink wink) Consider it our gift to you all for being so patient with these issues!
Mel OUT! 💃
<@&1136464455916589076>
Hi folks! After identifying an issue relating to the Floating Lantern Firework, we have adjusted the price from 125 → 250 Lucky Envelopes in the Maji Market Fireworks store (aka Najuma's booth).
This change will already be in place by the time the fairgrounds opens again in game. No game update or patching is needed.
We apologize for this adjustment and appreciate folks for understanding. 
<@&1136464455916589076>
We're noticing some server issues relating to logging in/traveling maps, etc.
Our folks are on it, so hang tight!
Thanks~
Looks like it was a blip and things look like they're improving on our end. We'll keep monitoring for a bit more. 
<@&1136464455916589076>
Hi folks! We're doing some tweaks behind-the-scenes, but looks like it'll result in a server kick to currently connected players.
Please brace for impact in about ~10 minutes (give or take). 
That said, all it'll take is for you to log right back in when it happens! Thank you.
<@&1136464455916589076>

📣 We will be rolling out a small hotfix to increase server stability.
Starting
we will be rolling out a hotfix to our servers to increase stability, and hopefully help with crashing and long travel times that many of you have been experiencing. 
You will be kicked to the login screen, but then will be able to immediately log back on.
We will remind you all when it's happening, and again once it's over. Thank you all so much for your patience on this.
Pingless reminder!
We have begun the process of rolling out the hotfix. You should be able to log right back after you've been kicked - but if you cannot, please let us know.
<@&1136464455916589076>
The hotfix should be completely rolled out, and you should no longer be kicked. You should also see some improvements with crashing and loading times! 
Thank you all for working through this with us!

Thank you all for your patience on this wild ride!

Hello~ Just wanted to clarify since I saw a couple folks asking: this was a server maintenance, so mainly just making sure some backend services are healthy and running as intended.
It is not a hotfix or full patch, which is why there are no patch notes. Thanks for understanding!
Hi folks. We're aware there is an issue with the current Twitch Drops campaign in which people are receiving the wrong item.
While we are currently working on a fix, if you've already claimed the wrong item, please submit a ticket to player support!
Thank you.
RE: Twitch Drops Wave 2
Update! While we did our best to tackle the errors, please note a new item will be sent out as the reward for 2 hours watched: Sandy Palcat Pal Mat (see image). It should be safe to claim the rewards now.
We also understand this is not the original item shown in our blog and on Twitch. We are planning to have a different item, the Sandy Palcat Pattern Rug in the next wave. Sorry for the confusion. 🙇

Hi folks. We’ve investigated an issue regarding the Twitch Drops Campaign Wave 3.

Hi folks! If you are running into this message:
The following component(s) are required to run this program:
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime
It should require a quick separate download from Microsoft.
This is the download (note: the link will directly download the .exe to your PC): https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe
This is the general page for more options:

<@&1136464455916589076>
Hey folks!
We've been made aware of the unintentionally bright VFX 'flash' animation that occurs while double looting. We're looking into a fix, but please avoid party buff looting if you suffer from photosensitivity.

Things will be updated as we get more deets in the coming days. As always, issue reports go [HERE] https://support.palia.com/hc/en-us
Pingless - The Home Tours trending list might not display results for some players.
Pingless - Some players might not be able to collect seeds, even when the collection indicator is displayed. The same issue could apply for watering plants and trees.
This issue has been resolved.

Hey, Palians! We’ve rolled out the update that “disables” Tool Skins, and you might temporarily lose connection; but you should be able to log-in immediately after.
In truth, your Tool Skins are not disabled. However, your Tool Skin will reset to default each time you travel between zones, and other players will not be able to see your equipped Tool Skin.
This should prevent any critical crashes associated with the Tool Skin bug, and we should have a fix and ready for patch 0.185, where we plan to re-enable Tool Skins. 🎣

Hey Palians,
Wanted to share an update regarding the housing plot issue that may affect some players PC players.
If you swap one of your plots, you might notice that items appear out of place or randomly scattered when you open the “H” menu.
Don’t worry! This is only temporary. Just restart Palia, and your layout will return to normal. If you move or edit an item while your layout looks funky, only that item’s new position will be saved. Everything else will revert back to its correct spot when you relog.
We’re working on a more permanent fix that may require a hotfix, so thank you for your patience as we work through.
Once again, If your decor looks off, just exit the game and load back in.
Thank you!

<@&1136464455916589076>
Howdy Palians,
We wanted to bring your attention to two high-profile bugs introduced in Patch 0.192.
As many of you are aware, Patch 0.192 brought the change that stops trees on one plot from counting towards the decor limit on all plots - we know you’ve been asking for this forever. This required rewriting some of the fundamentals of how the housing plot works, which is why it’s taken a while to get here.
Problem is sometimes when you change really old stuff you get some unintended consequences:
Decor Jumbling
Some folks (especially those who use some more *creative *plot decorating techniques) may have logged into 0.192 with a bit of a fright to find their plots to be a bit… disorganized. Higgledy-piggledy, if you will. We’re happy to say this is temporary and is fixed by relogging, and that players shouldn’t be concerned with interacting with these plots as normal. We just want folks to know that their hard work is safe, and the issue should be resolved next week.
Too Many Chests
There is currently an issue where you can only have 8 Storage Chests total across all plots instead of 8 Chests per plot. This means a lot of folks are finding they can’t place their shiny new Palium Storage down after picking up an Iron Storage to craft, due to having more than 8 Storage Chests across their other plots. This will be fixed in the next update, but until then there are two main options to work around this:
- Go across your plots and pick up chests until you have less than 8 total. This solves the issue but is obviously pretty unideal for a variety of reasons.
- Leave all your chests where they are until the next update.
Obviously both these options are not great, and we are really sorry for the frustration this will cause.
Hopefully the transparency is helpful, and we appreciate your patience as we work to resolve these frustrations.

||Snow Pavilion: To acquire the Snow Pavilion, Players must acquire the recipe for the Cozy Camp Canope - found via Inspiration of the Cozy Camp Set. Once you have the recipe, the next Kilima rummage pile you loot will guarantee the drop of the Snow Pavilion recipe.
Snow Umbrella: If players do not have Summer Stripe Umbrella Recipe, the Bahari Rummage Pile will give them the recipe on their next loot of the Bahari Rummage Pile. Then, the next Bahari Rummage pile that is looted will deliver the player the Snowy Parasol recipe. ||
-
Increased Snowball Drop Rates from Rummage Piles
-
The server merge feature has been re-enabled with fixes and updated features to make the experience smoother.
For additional details, please see the updated 0.199 Patch Notes. -

Hey folks,
<@&1136464455916589076>
Starting today, updated server merge features are being introduced to improve overall stability and performance of game servers in Palia. As game servers (of any type in any game) age, they begin to experience performance issues, leading to deteriorating player experiences (bugs, lag, disconnects) that many of you have likely encountered in Palia.
When this happens, as silly as it sounds, the only real solve is to reset that server - turn it off and back on. And without getting too deep on the tech, in Palia there are many instances of each map on the same machine, and sometimes even if your map isn’t experiencing issues there are other maps and players on the same machine that are. Server merging is a set of features we’ve developed to facilitate this and improve the quality of Palia overall.
In practice, for many players, moving servers doesn’t cause many issues, but for folks that are engaged in particular activities (e.g. cooking parties, big party Plush hunting) we know these merges can be a meaningful frustration. At the end of the day, we need to conduct these merges for the health of everyone playing Palia, but we also know we need to find better ways to help people that want to do these big group experiences. We don’t have anything to share yet on this front, but it’s an ongoing priority that we know we need to solve.
In the meantime, starting in Patch 0.200, you’ll be able to see the age of the server you’re on in the settings menu. We recommend players who want to do large parties all join the friend with the freshest server to have as much time as possible before a server merge might occur. This is in addition to the other improvements we’ve made, such as optimizations decreasing how often you’ll experience a merge, overall improvements to UX, and minimizing loading screens.
We've added this message, in addition to the changes mentioned during the hotfix earlier this week, to the 0.199 Patch Notes. More info: https://palia.com/news/patch-199

Players who made purchases should receive their items within an hour. If you are still experiencing issues past then, please reach out to our support team.
Thank you all!
Hey Palians,
<@&1136464455916589076>
We’re very close to bringing Palia back online and launching the Royal Highlands Expansion! 🐴
With that said, we encountered an issue with our Xbox Series X|S build of the game, and we’re going to need a little more to bring the game back to the Xbox platform specifically.
Players who try to login on Xbox will see a prompt to create or link an account, followed by a login/password error. Your account is NOT lost, and you do not need to create a new account. Your progress is safe, and you can still play on other platforms.
We’re working to bring Xbox online as soon as possible.
We very much appreciate your patience, and we’ll share updates as soon as we have them. 💚
The Royal Highlands is now live on ALL platforms, including Xbox! 🐴✨
<@&1136464455916589076>
The previous issue with the Xbox Series X|S build of the game has been resolved and all players should be able to play now.
Your patience throughout this extended downtime has been incredibly appreciated while we worked to get everything fully saddled up.
We’re incredibly excited to finally welcome everyone into the Royal Highlands. 💚
Greetings Palians,
We're aware of an issue that is preventing some users from traveling between maps. The team is actively investigating it and working on a fix. We will keep you posted when we have additional information to share.
Thank you for your patience!

Greetings, all!
We’ll be rolling out a client hotfix shortly.
This hotfix should resolve the gray checkered ground texture some players were seeing in the Royal Highlands, as well as fix store images.
There will be no downtime and you should not experience any disruptions to play. (No need for a relog!)

We’ll be rolling out a server hotfix tomorrow (<t:1778770800:F> - your local time here). This hotfix should fix several bugs discovered after the Royal Highlands launch.
You may experience a brief return to the login screen during the hotfix, but you should be able to hop right back in. Thank you!
Hey folks, we're pushing the hotfix back an hour to 9 a.m. PT. Thank you all for your patience!

We have rolled out a hotfix that has fixed the following:
- Star Quality and Amber Versions of the King Crab can now be found in the Royal Highlands.
- We found where all the Star Quality Sillyfins were... Jaakcats appear to have a taste for them. All Jaakcats now have a chance to drop Star Quality Sillyfins.
You should not experience any disruptions to play with this hotfix. (No need for a relog!)
Happy exploring!
