The oilrig loot will be rebalanced in the next patch.

You won't be blacklisted long as you don't change vanilla gameplay.

This is a known issue which will be resolved in the next patch.

Make your config read only.

C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/Rust/cfg right click on keys.cfg, properties and make it read only.

This is a bad idea.

[BUG] I seem to be having audio issues.

1) When cargo ship is around and scientists shoot and when the horn goes off my audio for camp fire, chopping wood, hitting nodes, etc. seems to get cut out or not play at all.

I was able to reproduce it on 3 community servers.

I've experienced this myself, we'll take a look.

BUG

Furnace skins not showing when placed.

show skins in inventory but when placing furnace its not skinned

Thanks, we're currently investigating this issue.

Update: This issue should now be resolved with Fridays client update.

We'll come clean.. it's Rust VR porn.

This is a major disadvantage during night time

Please fix quickly

Thanks - We'll look into this.

[QoL]

Change the way door collisions work in relation to items, not allowing doors to be placed if an item intersects them.

How to recreate:

Place an item near or in a doorframe, such as a workbench, and try to place a door in said doorframe.

This is currently the intended behaviour but we'll review it.

Names are SOOO SMALL on team in the map

We'll take a look at this.

What clarifies as "suitable moments"? If I may ask.

We only attempt to stop GC during combat and while moving, any other actions we do not attempt to prevent GC.

Well, you can see why in the actual clip bottom left (garbage collector):

Before freeze - 2384 MB

After freeze - 2136MB

From https://rust.facepunch.com/blog/february-update -

If you have a lot of RAM you can help the algorithm by increasing the gc.buffer convar. The default value is 256MB, which means it will perform a collection at suitable moments after 128MB (or 50% of gc.buffer) and it will always perform a collection at any moment after 256MB (or 100% of gc.buffer). We expect the default value to be entirely sufficient for the entity and player counts on official servers.

2384 - 2136 = 248MB (pretty close to 256 as hardlimit)

I always set gc.buffer to max value of 2048 and I rarely get any lagspikes :)

This is the correct answer and with good responses.

Hey Facepunch, when u fix this?

Unfortunately, GC has to happen and there is no way around it, we're always trying to reduce memory allocations when and where possible and attempting to force garbage collections outside of vital tasks such as combat.

Unity 2019 has an experimental feature called incremental garbage collection which we'll explore in the coming months. Incremental garbage collection spreads the collection over multiple frames instead of causing one freeze. This is yet to be tested so we can't make any promises.

Fuck Alistair, fuck Holmzy.. they should be working 24/7

You seem to be someone to address issues with. /sil isn’t working. I heard that it’s a known issue and I was just wondering if you guys know when it will be fixed. Thanks!

/sil is a command for the signartist modded plugin. You'd need to contact the author of the plugin if you're having issues.

This issue should now be resolved.

The server does no rendering, shaders are stripped while building the server.

You can safely ignore these warnings.

Well with the amount of recent false bans going around, this gives me hope. I got banned yesterday, coincidentally after reinstalling my Nvidia drivers while playing. Which coincidentally afterwards my game started crashing. About 20 crashes in 2 days later, I get banned while playing Savas.

Looks like that EAC change from the QOL update kinnnnnnda fucked everything up

If you dont mind me asking, how long did it take for them to unban you? I sent in an appeal and described what happened but I have no idea when to expect a reply

Paging u/Alistair_Mc , is there a confirmed uptick in EAC false bans recently?

Yes, unfortunately, a number of accounts were falsely banned.

There was one edge case in a cheat detection which caused a false positive which was found by EAC from player appeals. All the affected accounts have since had their ban removed.

[BUG] Chinook does not drop heavy scientists when starting the crate on oil rig. I've tried it 3 times once without doing card rooms once doing blue first getting green card and doing red and green card room along with fuse room and once in order going bottom to top. All 3 times chinook spawns but flies away from the oil rig. I JUST WANNA FIGHT THE BEEFY BOIS

We've released a hotfix for this issue, server owners will need to make sure their server is up to date.
