The next Rust force-wipe is coming up on February 6th, 2025 and players will see the following changes.
Full Economy, Skill Tree Wipe
This is something we hoped we would not have to do, but the skills plugin we use has corrupted the experience data of many players. Due to the nature of the plugin, this data cannot be fixed and the “fix data command” only further corrupts the data. Gamer has been working closely with the developer to find a way around a reset, but it is not possible at this time.
Compensation
All players on our Rust server in the month of February 2025 will receive the following compensation.
- Skill points which we recommend that non-VIP players assign to their Dexterity for the extra back-pack slots.
- Scrap to deposit to their bank currency to enable them to assign the above Skill points.
We need your help!
To test the fix, we need as many players active during February wipe as possible to help us find any bugs in the fix.
Currency is used in the following ways
- ALL Vending Machines on the map accept currency rather than scrap as payment for items. This includes Outpost, Ammunation, Fishing Villages, Mobile Vendor, player placed Vending Machines, and Airwolf.
- Teleporting to team-mates (
/tpr <playername>)
- Teleporting home (
/home add <nameofhome>)
- Teleporting to Outpost
- Skills (all players), Stats (VIP, MVP) used in the Skills Tree (
/xpstats)
- Bus Stop teleporting
- Scrap deposited to Vending Machines gives players 80% of the Scrap value as Currency
Known Issues
- Enchantment Runes are not saving between wipes. Unfortunately the dev of this plugin has been unresponsive, so we do not have a fix for it at this time.
Map Changes
- None in February. We plan some changes in March.
Updates
- New loot tables global across the server. Removed annoying 'junk' items from loot.
- Pocket Dimensions Will be craftable again (available to VIP and MVP players)
- Loot respawn rate has changed
- Loot tables will now follow a 2X rate (with no skills)
- NPC Turrets (outpost turrets) will be available to craft these will not target players or scientists but will shoot zombies for miles (MVP+ players only)
- Deployables now have boxes that spawn with them (TCs, Workbenches, Repair Bench, and mixing table)
- Ganja
