Rust

Introduction

In this guide, we'll show you a few things you may need for your Rust game server.

Connecting to your server

To connect to your server for the first time, open your server control panel and copy the server IP address from the console section.

Then, open Rust and press the key F1 to open the console. Use the “connect” command followed by your server IP to connect to your server.

Once connected, you can check if you got the admin role by typing something in the in-game chat. If your nickname is green, then you set your admin roles correctly.

RCON password

This is the first and most important thing!

It is a password for your Rust server console, which will not be secure until you change it. By default, it is set to " CHANGEME ", so it is crucial to replace it with a new one.

Otherwise, anyone could make unauthorized changes to your server!

Administration

You probably want to become an admin on your Rust server to access all admin commands, such as ban, kick, mute, noclip, or god mode. This will also allow you to give yourself any items in the game.

Admin roles

OWNER – Has access to all server commands and can add or remove other admins. MODERATOR – Has access to all server commands but can’t add or remove other admins.

Making yourself an admin

Get your STEAM64 ID.

Next, navigate to your server console and enter the following command. Ensure your server is running.

Ru3

This command would give the player admin role on your Rust server.

ownerid 2324923 myself

This command would give the player moderator role on your Rust server.

moderatorid 239472 friend
