Rust console - questions and answers
How to open the console in Rust?
The console opens with the F1 key. If it does not respond, check that developer mode is enabled in the settings and that F1 is not intercepted by a third-party program. You can close the console using the same F1.
How to raise FPS in Rust through the console?
Use the ready-made FPS Boost preset from this page: disable grass (grass.on false), supersampling (gfx.ssaa false), water reflections, shadows and post-effects. On most PCs this gives +20-60% frames. Commands can be inserted one by one or bound to a key.
How to make autorun (autorun)?
Enter bind q forward;sprint into the console - now pressing Q will cause the character to run forward without holding down the keys. Any key can be replaced with a convenient one.
Which commands require administrator rights?
Moderation commands (ban, kick, ownerid), teleportation, weather, spawn and launching events work only for server owners and moderators. They won’t work on someone else’s server without rights.
Are the binds saved after rebooting?
Yes, binds via the bind command are saved in the client's configuration and work on all servers. To unbind, use unbind
How to find out the SteamID of a player for a ban?
Enter the status command into the console - it will show a list of players with their SteamID, ping and nickname. This SteamID is used in the ban, kick and ownerid commands.
