Planning your Rust server

Plan a Rust server around its map, expected population and update policy before selecting resources. The catalog distinguishes the regular server, staging branch and autowipe template. A template name is not a promise of a working wipe schedule, plugin setup or capacity for a particular community.

  • Decide on map size, seed and intended population; resource demand varies with the world and workload and needs measurement.
  • Agree on the update branch and wipe policy, including what saves are retained, before configuring automated resets.
