Steps to add keybinds
- Press “F1”
- Type the following commands in the console
- Save the keybinds afterwards by entering: writecfg
One can then edit the file using a program like Notepad++, instead of directly entering it through the console. This can also be used to delete keybinds from the game, instead of going into console and entering:
Code:
bind <key> ""Flashlight when ADS
- bind Mouse1 +lighttoggle;+attack2
- Aiming down sight will also turn on flashlight/laser
- bind c duck
- Press C to crouch permanently
- Press CTRL to cancel
- bind q forward;sprint
- Press Q to auto-run
- Use Shift + W to cancel
- bind 0 forward;sprint;jump
- Press 0 to auto-swim
- Press Space + Shift + W to cancel
- bind z attack;duck
- Press Z to crouch permanently and auto-attack / auto-mine
- Press CTRL + Left Click to cancel
- bind z +attack;+duck
- Press Z to attack/mine and crouch
- bind n fov 90bind m fov 60
- Pressing N or M will change the player’s FOV
- bind comma "audio.game 1"
- (Normal audio level)
bind period "audio.game 2.5" - (Increased audio level, useful for listening to player movement)
bind minus "audio.game 0" - (Turns off game audio, only voice chat is on)
- bind u chat.say "Nice Try"\
- Pressing U will put everything within the quotes into chat
- bind 7 "craft.add -2072273936 1"
- Press 7 to auto-craft 1 bandage
Some keybinds will include “;” – which is used to combine two actions together using one key. Others may use a “+” sign, making it so that the keybind is not permanently activated and only when the key is pressed.
In addition, the “Auto-Craft Bandage” keybind can also be changed to craft something else entirely using the same format of:
Code:
bind <key> "craft.add <item id> <number>"Steps to add keybinds

Usage
The fish trap can only be deployed on shores, in relatively shallow, knee-deep waters.
Once deployed, you can access the contents of the trap and load it with bait by placing Food inside the trap's inventory. Many food items can be used to catch fish such as; Apples, Mushrooms, Pumpkins, Raw & Cooked Meats, and Corn. Seeds do not work for catching fish. Minnows can no longer be used to catch more fish. The fillets from a gutted trout can be used as bait.
Periodically, either Small Trout or Minnows will be caught, triggering a splashing animation and sound, and exhausting a portion of the loaded bait. Caught fish will appear in the trap's inventory. On average, you can expect to catch a fish about every 3 minutes, as long as a player is nearby.
Catching fish will reduce the trap's health by 10 Points. The trap has 100 health points in total and can be repaired with a Hammer (This may not work anymore). It is highly recommended to keep fish traps in constant maintenance.
If you are looking for the most calories out of your food, fishing will guarantee that. The lowest yield of a fish trap is 4 minnows per bait totaling 40 calories, which is equal to that of corn or pumpkin. That said when using mushrooms as bait, which only yield 15 calories when eaten, you will always get more calories from the caught fish than eating the mushroom alone. Waiting for the fish can yield great results especially when small trout are caught.
Crafting
The Survival Fish Trap can be crafted with:
- 200 Wood
- 5 Cloth

For the first few months of Rust's "experimental" development, most player variables such as the nudity censor and mouse sensitivity were controlled only by console commands (aka "cvars"). Thankfully, most of these controls are now in the game menu for your tweaking pleasure. Simply hit the escape key and open the options tab!
While it's now easier to edit many things, console commands still come in handy. Below is a list of use Rust console commands for both players and admins.
Note: 1=true and 0=false. These may be used interchangeably when entering console commands that have an "on or off" state.
perf
The long running replacement for fps.graph, perf is the Newman's go-to tool for figuring out how much abuse their PC is under. This tool has two (viable) options "perf 1" & "perf 2". Perf 1 will display FPS only while Perf 2 will show you FPS + RAM usage.
![[Image: 20161201024949_1.jpg?format=500w]](https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5420d068e4b09194f76b2af6/t/583fd6e2bebafbe2076b1d62/1480578793284/20161201024949_1.jpg?format=500w)
Perf 2 readout in the bottom left of the players screen.
fps.limit -1
Sometimes you don’t need the most frames per second that your computer can put out. Although it’s probably very rare that anyone would need this in Rust at the moment, its good to know it’s there for the future. -1 is the default value and that puts no limit on FPS but you can set it as high or low as desired.
![[Image: 2016-01-28-015116.normal.nohud.png?format=500w]](https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5420d068e4b09194f76b2af6/t/583fd74dd482e9d838b1eab4/1480578894987/2016-01-28-015116.normal.nohud.png?format=500w)
censornudity true - the default
censornudity true/false
The censor can easily be turned on and off through the options menu these days. That being said, there is just no substitute for telling a friend to type "censornudity false" into console and hearing their screams of horror as their screen is filled with literal dicks.
kill
Rust is a harsh game to say the least. Sometimes your best course of action is to just to say screw it and start fresh. Typing "kill" in console will get this done instantly. There is a 60 second cooldown when using this command.
Binding keys
A very useful function that serves the purpose of binding various actions such as attack, crouch and the standard movement actions into one keybind. This can be particularly useful with reducing the grindy feeling that Rust conveys on occasion. Some useful binds are as follows:
bind m attack;duck - Dubbed the AutoMine bind, it automatically uses the attack action in conjunction with crouch - giving you more time to look around your surroundings more efficiently and ultimately allowing you to survive longer.
bind q forward;sprint - Simply this is an auto running bind which concurrently presses w and shift without you pressing the buttons themselves thus giving you opportunity to concentrate on your surroundings or finishing off your sunday roast (yum).
I recommend you take a look here. This will give you insight into the potential of ultimately making Rust easier in all areas such as attacking, time efficiency and generally allowing you and I to be lazier.
client.connect ip:port
Not seeing the server you want to play on master server list? No worries, this handy command will set you straight (that is, if the server is up and on a compatible version to your client). Note you can also run client.disconnect if you like, which is the same thing has hitting escape and 'disconnect'.
server.seed
This command will output the map seed of the server you're currently on. The procedural mapping system uses this number to generate the map. With the latest changes you can also get this information from the F1 menu under "system information".
streamermode 0/1
This nifty switch allows you to enter streamer mode. While this is active, most identifying names (you, server, and players) will be changed to something random or be hidden entirely. It's not fool proof, but it should help deter the average stream sniper.
![[Image: streamermode?format=1000w]](https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5420d068e4b09194f76b2af6/t/56a9c293a12f44bc3730fd0a/1453965989949/streamermode?format=1000w)
Admin commands
moderatorid STEAMID
This command is used to give someone access to the admin commands.
![[Image: 2016-01-28-030547.normal.png?format=500w]](https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5420d068e4b09194f76b2af6/t/56a9cc4c42f552e4d5acd73f/1453968497900/2016-01-28-030547.normal.png?format=500w)
kick NAME
This will kick someone from the server. You don't need the full name, unique partials will work. This also broadcasts a KICKED message to the server.
ban
This will execute a kick ban. It will then be broadcast to the entire server.
banid STEAMID
This command will ban a user given their SteamID. This is the only kick/ban command that does not broadcast to the rest of the server.
server.writecfg
This is a helpful command to force the server to write all bans / moderator id's which have been set to config files (located in the /server/*identity*/cfg folder. The config files do write upon shutdown, however if the server crashes... that will be lost. Therefore, it is smart to run this command after every ban to make sure it sticks.
status
This will cause the console to print out a partial list of connected clients along with their ping, ip and steamid.
inventory.give ITEM AMOUNT (example: inventory.give wood 1000)
This command allows you to give items to yourself. However with the items menu now being available from the F1 interface, this command is really only useful for spawning massive amounts of resources. The item name needs to be in the short name form or item ID. Oxide has a great list which is updated regularly, check it out here!

say "I am server console"
This allows you to speak as SERVER. Note, you need the quotes in to say multiple words.
server.globalchat 0
This will make text chat local (meaning only people close to each other can see each others chat messages). This is currently set to 1 by default.
env.time 0 - 24
Change the time on the server. 6 = Dawn / 12 = Noon / 18 = Dusk etc
teleport "playername"
Rust now has teleport! Just type a partial name or full name.
teleportany [entity]
This is a weird one... it allows you to teleport to any entity type of your choosing. For instance, to go to the nearest horse, type: teleportany horse.
noclip
Toggles noclip on and off. It's a good idea to bind this to a key (bind L noclip)
debugcamera
Breaks the camera away from your character or the player you're spectating and allows you to look around without players seeing you. Hold shift to speed up or spacebar to slow down. This is also a great one to have binded, we suggest using the P key (bind P debugcamera)
weather.fog
Changes fog chance to the value you set. Particularly useful in situations when big giants are fighting or to improve picture quality for the aspiring content creators. Weather.fog 0.25 will set the chance to 25%.
weather.rain
Like the above this will change the chance of rain on your server which will likely improve FPS but discourage those who value ultimate stealth. Weather.rain 0.38 would set the chance to 38%.

Changes to Rust follow the Rust RFC (request for comments) process. These are the RFCs that were approved for implementation this week:
- RFC 2345: Allow panicking in constants.
- RFC 2296: Add
Option::replace - to the core library.
- RFC 2344: Allow
loop - in constant evaluation.
- RFC 2302: Tuple struct construction with
Self(v1, v2, ..) - .
- RFC 2397: Introduce
#[do_not_recommend] - to control errors for trait impls.
- Amend RFC 0430: Allow underscores between numbers in CamelCase names.
Every week the team announces the 'final comment period' for RFCs and key PRs which are reaching a decision. Express your opinions now.
