Server performance

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

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.

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.

Tags

What do the server tags on localhost mean?

What the game's server browser reads from localhost is this set of tags: gmrust (Game mode): Survival in the standard Rust style; mp1 (Max players): 1 slots are available; ts8 (Group limit): This is the game default: at most 8 per team; v2635 (Protocol): To join, your game must match protocol 2635; cs168909 (Build): Game build: 168909; ptrak (Networking): The standard network layer, RakNet, is in use; $r? (Region code): This server has no region code; ^o (Oxide): The plugin framework Oxide (uMod) runs on this server; ^z (Modded): This server appears under Modded because plugins or settings alter the game. The tags also carry the current player count, the queue and when the world was made; you will find them at the top of this page.

Which Rust Population lists and filters include localhost?

On Rust Population, localhost is filed under these lists: Modded Rust servers, counted. These are the filters it appears under when you browse the list: Type: Modded; Server tag: Modded ^z and Oxide ^o; Group limit: 5 or more.

Wipe schedule

What is the wipe schedule on localhost?

Its rhythm cannot be told yet: too few of localhost's wipes are on record. On Thursday 5 November at 19:00 UTC the monthly force wipe comes round, and every Rust server wipes with it. Counted from 15 days 18 hours ago, that is how long the current world has stood.

Settings

Which map does localhost run?

A procedural map, generated by the game, is in use on localhost.

What are the rules and settings on localhost?

The name tells you nothing about gather rates: localhost states none. The group limit is 8 players, which is the default. You get survival here, raid, build and gather: the standard game. You can raid and fight other players here. You find it under Modded, since plugins or settings change how it plays. Oxide plugins are in use here. You play with Valve's anti-cheat on: VAC.

Server details

Which version of Rust does localhost run?

On Windows, localhost runs Rust network protocol 2635 and build 168909. Steam updates your game automatically, but you need the same protocol to join.

Is localhost online, and how reliable is it?

We last saw localhost 42 hours ago, and it is offline now. The last 1 full day gave 0% uptime, with 0 of 24 hours recorded as up. On 27 October 2026, Rust Population saw it for the first time.

Where is localhost located?

A region is not published by localhost. The location a server claims is what Rust Population shows, not the place where the machine stands. You will find it at 143.105.203.89:25566.

Getting in

How do I join localhost?

Open the console with F1 in Rust and enter client.connect 143.105.203.89:25566. Joining from this page with Launch Rust works too, opening Rust through Steam and connecting you.
