Figure 1 follows the players on the server at three scales: every five minutes over two hours, the hourly mean and peak over 48 hours, and the daily mean and peak over 90 days. Dashed uprights mark its wipes.

3Performance

We query the server directly for its frame rate, entity count and memory4. Low frames per second and a climbing entity count are what players feel as lag (Figure 2).

4Rank

The server stands in the top 71% of all ranked servers. Rank is on player hours over the last seven days, and 1 is best; Figure 3 draws it day by day.

5Wipes

5.1Schedule

Not enough wipes seen yet to tell when the next one is. Every server wipes at the monthly force wipe.

5.2History

Table 2: Every wipe recorded, newest first.
Wiped (UTC)PeakCrowdLastedBefore
No wipe seen yet.

Peak: the most players in the first 48 hours. Crowd: whether every day of the wipe kept at least half that peak, or the day it fell below. Before: players just before it wiped. A new world less than six hours after a wipe is a restart, not a wipe of its own.

gmrust (Game mode): This is survival as standard Rust plays; mp20 (Max players): 20 slots are available; ts8 (Group limit): Teams are limited to 8, as the game defaults; v2634 (Protocol): The game protocol is 2634; your client must match it to join; cs167398 (Build): This server runs game build 167398; ptrak (Networking): The network layer is RakNet, standard for the game; $r? (Region code): A region code has not been set: these are the tags Rust publishes, and the server browser reads them. Also in the tags: players now, the queue, and when the world was made; these appear at the top of this page.

A.8Where can Rust be found among the Rust Statistics lists and filters?

Rust community servers, measured are the Rust Statistics lists that Rust fits. These filters on the server list return it: Type: Community (not modded, not official) and No plugins at all; Group limit: 5 or more.

Settings and map

A.9What are the settings and rules that govern Rust?

The name of Rust states no gather rate. No cap is given beyond the game's default of 8 players per group.

Community is its category in the server browser. The server has VAC on, Valve's anti-cheat.

A.10On which map does Rust take place?

Size 3,000 and seed 12345 define the procedural, game-generated map on Rust. Because size and seed determine the map, RustMaps can show it, linked from this page.

Enter client.connect 178.208.94.91:28015 in the Rust console, reached by pressing F1 after starting the game. Or press Launch Rust and join here, which opens Rust through Steam and connects you.
