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).

range

This server has not answered a direct query in the last 48 hours.

Figure 2: Server performance. 48 hours: hourly readings. 30 to 90 days: one point a day, with the day's average and lowest fps, most entities and most memory.

4Rank

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)	Peak	Crowd	Lasted	Before
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.

The game's server browser reads gmrust (Game mode): Rust survival, in its standard form; mp500 (Max players): 500 slots are available; ts8 (Group limit): 8 per team, the value the game sets by default; v2633 (Protocol): Joining requires the same game version: protocol 2633; cs164530 (Build): Build 164530 is the one running; ptrak (Networking): The network layer is RakNet, standard for the game; $r? (Region code): The region code is unset; ^o (Oxide): The plugin framework in use is Oxide (uMod); ^z (Modded): Modded listing: plugins or settings modify the game, which probe publishes as its tags. The tags also carry current players, queue length and world creation time, shown at the top of this page.

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

Modded Rust servers are the Rust Statistics lists that probe fits. These filters on the server list return it: Type: Modded; Server tag: Modded ^z and Oxide ^o; Group limit: 5 or more.

Rules, settings, map

A.9Under what rules and settings does probe operate?

No gather rate appears in the name of probe. No cap is given beyond the game's default of 8 players per group. The mode is survival, which means the standard mode, in which you gather, build and raid. Players may raid and fight one another. Plugins or settings change the game; the browser files it under Modded. Oxide plugins are running. VAC is active: that is Valve's anti-cheat.

A procedural map, generated by the game, is what probe runs.
