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 71% 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): The region code is left blank; ^o (Oxide): A plugin framework, Oxide (uMod), is in use; ^z (Modded): The game is changed by plugins or settings, so it is listed under Modded. 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.

What are the rules and settings on matrix?
The name tells you nothing about gather rates: matrix states none. Eight players per group is the default, and it applies here. You get survival here, raid, build and gather: the standard game. Fighting and raiding between players is allowed. Modded is its browser category: plugins or settings change the game. The plugins it runs are Oxide. VAC, Valve's anti-cheat, runs here.
