Gung hay fat choy!

12:00am EST - Another week in Rust development and we’ve got fixes, more twitch drops, and Lunar New Year content!

Our update preview stream goes live at 1pm EST. Follow @Rustafied for news throughout the day.

Lunar New Year patch

It’s that time of the year again! Lunar New Year is upon us and Facepunch has some exclusive content planned for the festivities. Going live on the item store today, you can expect a couple of Lunar New Year items including an Ox Mask, Gong, and more. We won’t know the exact details on each item until they are released later today, but keep an eye on the item store this afternoon for the goods. I’ll make sure to update here with more info once it’s available.

New twitch drops

With skins for the likes of bchillz, Shadowfrax, trausi, and more, the Rust community is in for another solid week of enjoying Rust streamers to gain their exclusive goods. As always, head to Facepunch’s Twitch page to make sure your account is hooked up to receive drops.

Hotfixes aplenty 

You may have noticed a couple Rust updates over the past week. Although all of these were technically optional server / client patches, it is highly recommended you run these updates as they fix a number of issues and exploits. If you’ve been around the Rust space for a while you won’t be surprised at a couple fixes following the large monthly update. If you’re new to this whole thing, well, get used to it!

• Work on a static elevator variant for monuments

• Progress on new animals

• Fixes to the Jackhammer model mesh

• Fix for server tag typo
