POWER TRIP: Monuments Come Alive with Grid-Powered Global Events

Power-Driven Monuments

Rust enters a new era where the Power Plant acts as a server-wide heartbeat. Powering it unlocks active gameplay at monuments, from pumping oil at the Dome to calling in airdrops at the Airfield.

Detailed Tweaks & Features

  • Player Interaction: You must now maintain infrastructure like Water Treatment and Oil Rigs to unlock premium utility.
  • Quality of Life: Respawn points can finally be toggled on the compass and favorited on the death screen.
  • New Content: The Bar Games Pack DLC introduces playable Pool and Darts for your base.

Stat Shifts

  • Wolf Headdress: Free craft ➔ 🔴 Tier 1 Workbench required
  • Water Well Stock: 10 ➔ 🔴 2
  • Water Well Restock: 2m ➔ 🔴 10m

High external walls now have a 20% maintenance upkeep to curb spam, and hover-looting bugs are finally squashed. A massive, complex update that finally gives endgame players something useful to actually do.
