Car Lifts v2

At any powered Car Lift in the game you can now, with enough scrap, buy a 2-, 3-, or 4-socketed Car Chassis! ๐Ÿš—

Keeping Scrap a more valuable currency, and saving you from wandering around finding the right sized chassis in the wild.

It even comes with a free 100 fuel to boot โ›ฝ


Huge changes to the RPG system!

The XPerience and Quality Crafting plugins have been replaced by one plugin to replace them both ๐Ÿ’

See the image below to catch a glimpse of the new UI!

Besides this huge change there have been several smaller changes as well:

  • Difficulty balancing fixes, making tough content more rewarding, and lower easier content less daunting
  • the Chinook should hopefully drop it’s crates off better at monuments, third time’s the charm right? Also it will only drop crates when people are online, and crates will now stay for 4 hours. ๐Ÿš
  • Last but certainly not least, Xyzetta has implemented many new skins for everyone to use! ๐Ÿ‘•๐Ÿ‘š

Vehicular Radio’s ๐Ÿ“ป

So, the other day on the server we were talking about radio’s on cars, this new plugin we’ve implemented took it a step further, check the pics and you’ll see what I mean! ๐Ÿ˜…

You can still interface with the radio as usual to change channels or insert a cassette, though turning it on/off requires a button that each vehicle receives upon placing the radio.

Besides the vehicles shown, it also fits on the Scrap Transport Helicopter, but it’s completely out of sight inside the dashboard there, so I didn’t take a picture, the cockpit dashboard receives a button on it on the very spot where there normally is a missing dial!

Unlike the lock or turret, the radio does not require crafting; unfortunately, but can simply be added and removed via a command you’ll find in the /info panel!

tl;dr no more boring quiet flights to the oilrigs, or trips across the map in eerie silence! ๐Ÿค—๐ŸŽถ๐ŸŽต


Cars received turrets!

Simply bring a car to a powered car lift, drag a turret from your inventory to the car slot you’d like to equip it on, put a gun and ammo on the turret, and don’t forget to flick the switch to On ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Some specifications:

  • Limited to 1 turret per car
  • Can be deployed on any car module except the Engine and Storage modules
  • Turret can be removed with the Building Hammer and the Remover tool
  • Turrets will be locked along with the self-deploy-able codelock
  • Turret will remain active even when the engine is not running, though can be turned off manually
  • Turret will target both NPC’s and animals, but not players
  • Turrets can be rotated
  • If you move the car module with the turret, the turret will move along with it
  • Removing a car module with turret will add a turret to your inventory

Plugins and changes

Besides new hardware, our server has had a few extra additions and changes.

  • Base upkeep has been significantly lowered (this might change back in the future as the server population grows)
  • Certain items have increased stack sizes (Ammo, scrap, medical syringes and more)
  • Crates ๐Ÿ“ฆ will now float if they land in deep waters
  • Non-Electric lighting ๐Ÿ•ฏ goes on automatically at night. No need for fuel! ๐Ÿ”ฅ
  • You can now invite people to your team remotely (/inviteplayername‘)
  • The world has more to offer! Now you can loot more containers such as garbage bags, cash registers and more
  • The NPCs have multiplied ๐Ÿ‡ and had a wardrobe change ๐Ÿ‘š. More NPCs have been added to monuments and some even patrol the roads! ๐Ÿ’€
  • A special version of ChatGPT has been added. Ask her questions โ” and she will answer!

Please refer to the /info panel in game to see the different commands!

From here on out this beautiful art piece will be ours to show off!
Huge thanks to M!sta for offering his great abilities to us. ๐Ÿ’–

And M!sta didn’t forget about our logo:

A small addition to the plugin list

A couple of new plugins have made the ever growing list:

  • It’d going downhill ๐Ÿ‘‡from here on! …or at least so for the horses! ๐Ÿ‡
    – Horses are now better at traversing down the hills/slopes
    – The food ๐ŸŒฝconsumption for horses have been cut down by 50%
    – Thoroughbreds (white and black horses) now have 25% more stamina
  • With courtesy of m!sta’s gracious donation, we now have a trade plugin! ๐Ÿ’ณ
    /trade “playername” to initiate the trade and the other party can accept the trade by typing
    /Trade Yes or /Trade No to decline
    *Make sure to have the trade items in your inventory

We hope that these small addition will make your day!


A relief like no other

When on the road in Rust, one must face many challenges. One of these might come as a surprise despite it being a very natural thing we all have in common!

Player Siff has saved the road warriors ๐Ÿš— by creating a little subtle place, where you can find relief in peace โ˜ฎ :

When you gotta go, you gotta go! ๐Ÿ’ฉ

This very handy building can be found at AG17, east side of the road.
Do remember to visit and notice her attention to detail. Especially inside the ‘toilet’! ๐Ÿšฝ

Here’s to hoping that she will add more than one. ๐Ÿ˜
