We run the official Rust dedicated server on the latest build, with three templates: Vanilla, Oxide (uMod) for the large plugin ecosystem, and Carbon, a lighter modern framework that loads most Oxide plugins. Your map, your seed and your wipe schedule are yours. Facepunch forces a map wipe with the monthly update on the first Thursday of each month; the panel shows when the next one is due. Between those dates you decide how often to wipe the map or the blueprints, and the scheduled tasks run it for you at the hour you choose. The Statistics page plots the server FPS, the number that tells you whether the map is too big for the hardware. ### How to start a Rust server 1. Open the panel, choose Rust and pick Vanilla, Oxide or Carbon; Oxide is the usual choice for community servers. 2. Choose the map: procedural with a seed and size, or one of the fixed maps Barren, Hapis, Craggy or Savas. 3. Set the hostname, description and website players see in the server browser. 4. Start the server. Map generation takes a few minutes the first time; the console shows the progress. 5. In Rust press F1 and type client.connect followed by the address and port from the panel. ### Finding the server in game Players connect through the F1 console with client.connect and the address shown in the panel, or find the server in the Community tab once it is listed. A password can keep a test server private while you set it up. Player slots go up to 500 within the slots of your plan. In Steam (View > Game Servers > Favourites > Add a server), type the Steam favourites address shown on the Server tab, not the join address: Rust answers Steam queries on another port. client.connect in the F1 console takes the address on the panel. ### World size, seed and save interval Procedural maps take a world size between 1000 and 6000 and a seed; the same pair always generates the same island. Larger maps hold more players but cost more memory and more time to generate. The save interval sets how often the world is written to disk, between one minute and one hour. ### RAM and disk for Rust Rust starts on 8 GB of RAM for a small or medium map. A large map, many players and a long list of plugins push memory up, and 16 GB is the comfortable figure for a busy community server. The map, the saves and the blueprints need about 25 GB of disk. ### Plugins and admin commands On Oxide or Carbon, install plugins from the catalogue or drop .cs files into the plugins folder; they load without a restart. The console sends say, kick, ban, teleport and inventory commands. Schedule map and blueprint wipes from the scheduled tasks. ### Why players cannot see or join the server A new server can take a few minutes to appear in the Community list, so share the client.connect address meanwhile. «Steam auth timeout» usually clears with a retry or a Steam restart. If the server takes very long to boot, the map is being generated; large sizes take longer the first time and after every map wipe. Low server FPS under load is a sign the map is too big for the plan.
