Measurements
Players
Every five minutes, from the Steam server list.
Hourly average and peak, UTC.
Daily average and peak, UTC.
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. From asking the server directly; low fps and a climbing entity count mean lag.
Rank
Top 66% of all ranked servers. Ranked on player hours over the last seven days.
Wipe schedule
Not enough wipes seen yet to tell when the next one is. Every server wipes at the monthly force wipe.
Wipes
| Wiped | Peak | Crowd | Lasted | Players 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. A new world less than six hours after a wipe is a restart, not a wipe of its own.

(Region code): No region code is set; ^o (Oxide): A plugin framework, Oxide (uMod), is in use; ^z (Modded): Plugins or settings change the game; it is listed under Modded. You will see the player count, queue and world creation time at the top of this page, because the tags carry them too.

Settings
Which map does Rust run?
Rust uses a map the game generates: procedural.
What are the rules and settings on Rust?
The name tells you nothing about gather rates: Rust states none. Eight players per group is the default, and it applies here. You get survival here, raid, build and gather: the standard game. You can raid and fight other players here. The server browser files it under Modded, where plugins or settings alter the game. You will find Oxide running as plugins. VAC, Valve's anti-cheat, is not running.
