July 2026 Wipe

July is here. Summer is in full swing and it’s that time for another Rust update and wipe!

This month, we are getting the new apartment complex where players can rent rooms complete with storage and a bed. The raiding/break in component has been disabled for us (we are PvE after all). This no raiding also applies to the new rental shops at the complex. The computer station in the basement should still be accessible, but players shouldn’t be able to enter other player’s rooms or conduct PvP in those areas. Note: You can’t deploy any new items to the apartment. That all being said, remember that this is all new and while plugins have been updated to support this, we wouldn’t keep any major loot you aren’t willing to lose in these rooms just yet until we are sure no bugs exist.

A note on Clans: FP has introduced a new clans system. We are not yet sure how this will interface with plugins that support clans currently. So it’s still recommended that you use the /clan command to create clans/teams for now. However, if you do decide to use the new clan system, please let us know on Discord via #admin-help if you see any issues.

As of now, there are still a few plugins that have not yet been updated. They are:

  • Arena Events – Updated!
  • Water Bases (This update was just received so it should be available shortly.) Updated!
  • Apartment rooms with stoves/furnaces will not be at the increased speed for now. Hopefully, we will see an update to speed those up as well.

As always with any major update to Rust, there may be issues that we haven’t caught ourselves. If you run into any issues, please make a ticket in our Discord in #admin-help so that we can look into it.

Chest Stacks Replaced

We switched the chest stacking plugin out to one from a different developer to fix various issues. If you already had stacked chests setup and are wanting to reskin them, you will need to do the following:

  • Empty the box
  • /remove the box
  • Reskin the box using /sb
  • Redeploy the box to the stack

New stacks should not have to do this. This is only for any stacks you did from wipe day up to today. Once you reskin and redeploy, you should then be able to reskin in place using /sd or the skinbox spraycan.

Updates June 5th 2026

  • Fixed new industrial electric ovens not having boosted speed/output

We are continuing to monitor issues with chest stacking. It’s very possible we may have to replace that plugin with something else as the dev doesn’t seem to want to maintain it anymore. For now, we recommend that you DO NOT stack chests! It is possible that the top 2 chests may get removed including their contents and we can not replace lost loot as a result. We will provide more info later and if needed a time table on when we will switch the plugin to something else.

June 2026 Wipe

Well, June is here and as usual FacePunch broke several things with this update. As of now, most plugins have been updated but we are still waiting on a few. To see the current list, check #known-bugs on our Discord.
