How to Use the Exclusion List in Palworld 1.0: Complete Automation Guide
By Sophia Al-Mansoor
Even a flawless exclusion list setup collapses under poor physical layout design. Transport suitability Pals evaluate geometric clearance before pathing toward dropped goods. Large haulers like Wumpo or Wumpo Botan boast massive carrying capacity via Level 4 Transport, but their enormous collision meshes cause them to get stuck on basic stairwells, doorframes, and dense defensive walls.
For compact, multi-floor production structures, medium and small transport units deliver vastly superior results:
Helzephyr remains a premier choice for indoor and multi-tiered setups. Operating exclusively with Level 3 Transport, it lacks secondary harvesting traits that could distract it from clearing drop points. Because it floats, Helzephyr navigates rough terrain elevation changes far better than grounded quadrupeds. Gorirat and Katress also serve as effective floor runners when flight paths collide with low ceilings.
Base architecture must complement these units. Position drop-off zones along central thoroughfares. Placing a single, exclusion-filtered Ore Chest directly adjacent to metal smelting furnaces cuts transit steps down to zero. Smelters step forward two paces, grab materials out of the chest without navigating through base corridors, and immediately fire up production queues.
