Palworld Players Request Task Assignment Feature, Warn Against Overworking Pals

One player's experiment reveals Pals can become sick and depressed from overwork, but do not die.

Palworld players are requesting a feature that allows them to assign tasks to their Pals, inspired by a work priority chart from the game Rimworld.
Players have voiced concerns about overworking their Pals, with one player warning others to enjoy their first playthrough slowly instead of rushing to level up.
A player conducted an experiment to see if Pals could die from overwork. After eight hours, the Pals became sick and depressed, but did not die.
The player sold the sick and depressed Pals for 5,076 gold coins, stating that healing them would be 'too much of a bother'.
Despite the harsh conditions, the Pals remained loyal and continued working, even after sustaining fractures and other ailments.
