Death

As a result of the previous Rust update, the current map for Pure PvE became unusable due to an outdated navmesh. Because of this, the server had to wipe in order to restore connectivity. Everything obtained from now until next Thursday will carry over into next wipe as well as instant crafting server wide until then. Server is back online @Mal_s @CowboyRob99 @dudleydowork

I will save what I can data wise and then wipe the rest. I will just host events until next wipe.

Status: Fucked

Options are running thin. Trying one last thing before I'm left with no other option but to wipe.

We've been experiencing some nasty crashes caused by yesterdays update that I have been tirelessly working to resolve. I took the time to rebuild the compiler, data, and bins. Hopefully, this resolves the issue. If not I will need to take more drastic measures which include the removal of player data. If I can get it to limp on one leg until the wipe I will try my best to make it so.

The best meme thread 2017

The infinite nodes may be due to the new mini game system and the infinite cactus drops sound alerming but sadly this is all game related and I have no control over this. Commenting on quarries, this has been much of a discussion recently and the only explanation I can possibly provide is that quarries lose its richness over time so you cannot keep using the same one. This is just a wild thought.

@Dirty Harry unfortunately that's rust but our servers don't have to be this way. We have a zero tolerance for asshatery but we're not always on to catch it so it's important that someone steps up and calls them out.

@Dirty Harry so that's what was in his boot..

That's no dank meme but I'll accept it.

@bleaumeani you can disable chat in settings. The best way to remedy this is with the ban hammer which has already been done. Also, I'm sure @Fyreswrath will not be so easily deterred by a few spoiled kids with entitled internet access. She's a tough woman! What I plan to do to prevent this from happening in the future: 1) Add a chat filter to replace or remove banned words before they're even sent 2) Deploy more staff on that server during swing shift 3) Sharpen the ban hammer

This section is primarily for VIP related discussion and should only be used if you plan to make fun of another player who cannot access this section. Requests are for recycler relocation and after wipe respawns or just general inquiries. Please reply to this thread with the dankest meme possible to ensure you acknowledge this new section and can utilize it to its full compacity.

I will look into a maturity filter for the chat and I'm opposed to having a vote kick feature as it wouldn't take much effort for a small group to assemble to abuse the feature. Thanks for all the suggestions!

Servers are now fully functional and have yet to catch fire.

All servers are now undergoing rolling restarts to apply missing dependencies preventing some plugins from working.

@Grifter -iωl- Try now

All servers updated

Updates have been delayed as Facepunch has yet again released the wrong build for Linux. Pure will be down until the correct build is released. ETA 10 minutes.

Rust Updates #169 This weeks update includes new tips, UI menu improvements, DX9 end of life, a new minigame and Iceberg progression. Find out more on all these topics down below in this weeks RustEZ guide to Dev Blod #169. New Mini-game This weeks update has introduced some unique changes into the game including a "node mini-game" which simulates the player mining for actual precious metals while also granting increased yield and cutting the time it takes to mine a node in half. This seems to add a different perspective to farming, however, the time it takes to navigate a node to find the sparkle doesn't seem too cost efficient unless you're using primitive tools or even a rock. DX9 EOL Although OpenGL is by far the better choice, Rust will always default to DX and instead, use OpenGL as a fallback in the event the machine running it cannot operate using DX. Because of this Face Punch has opted to replace DX9 support with OpenGL just as a fallback method. EAC Update Chances are you've already encountered the "EAC Disconnect" This occurs when your client stops communication to EAC servers causing an authentication rejection. EAC (Easy Anti-Cheat) is an integrated 3rd-party system used to prevent top-level bots, overlays and of course the infamous AHK (auto hot key.) Although it's easily bypassed it provides a relatively safe environment for PvP players. Menu UI Improvements New UI additions have been added to the games launch menu adding a Find Game and an exit confirmation because we all know easy it is to hit the exit button rather than the settings cogwheel. Icebergs Though they will not be available this update it seems FacePunch has made forward progression on bringing back icebergs into the game. No real information about the change has been provided so we'll leave it at that. Minor Changes Now for the tedious and minor changes majority of players will most likely not even notice. Item description changes. Campfires now displace grass. Grass now displaces around nodes. Grass has been scaled down 10%. The size of nodes has been decreased for better performance. Nodes found in snow biomes are now easier to see and differentiate. Metal nodes now show more oxidation. View full news

@mspeedie being able to twig on pure is both a good thing and a bad thing. It's bad knowing someone can twig over defenses but the good thing is that it's prepping players for vanilla game play. The majority of PVP servers have twigging enabled and I would not want to give a new player the wrong idea about the game and end up being blindsided in the real world. The community tab is nothing but vanilla because Rust, face punch, does not want new players to think mods are part of the game. That's why there's a dedicated modded section. As for quests and NPCs, there is something in the works for the modded PvE server. PS: I noticed I haven't yet made a suggestions and feedback thread for the pure server.
