You can bind almost anything in Rust to a key. This lets you run commands instantly without typing them in chat every time.
How to make a keybind
- Press F1 to open the console.
- Make sure you are on the Console tab.
- Type a bind command and press Enter.
bind <key> chat.say /command
Replace <key> with the key you want and /command with the command.
bind b chat.say /home
Example: Pressing B will run /home in chat.
Bind multiple actions to one key
Separate actions with a semicolon.
bind z "+attack;+duck"
This swings and crouches at the same time. Common for farming nodes.
Save all your binds at once
You can stack several binds in one line so you only paste once.
bind b chat.say /home;bind k chat.say /rec;bind h chat.say /trade
Paste the whole line into console and press Enter.
Note: Binds are saved on your PC. You only need to set them once unless Rust resets them.
Popular useful binds
bind q "+forward;+sprint"
bind z "+attack;+duck"
bind r chat.say /rec
