Useful Rust Console Commands

 

Most binds can be controlled within the game's menu, where you can tweak them by simply hitting the escape key (ESC), opening the “options” tab, and then heading over to the “controls” tab. However, there are many things console commands are still handy and are required when creating advanced key binds and preforming console commands.

Common Console Commands

To perform all these actions, open the Rust F1 console. Click the F1 button on your keyboard to open the console, then type the command inside the blue text box.

  • kill - Kills your player so you can respawn

  • respawn - Same as “kill” but if “kill” doesn’t work, try this one. It works when your player is bugged.

  • client.connect <server IP> - Insert the server’s IP instead of <server IP> to connect a server

  • client directly.fps - Displays current FPS in console

  • fps.limit -1 - Removes fps limit and resets it back to default

  • graphics.vm_fov_scale 0 - Turns of FOV scaling for weapons

  • streamermode true/false - Turns On/Off Streamer Mode (hides players names and server info

  • seed -Displays current map seed

Note: 1=true and 0=false. These may be used interchangeably when entering console commands that have an "on or off" state.

To perform all these actions, open the Rust F1 console. Click the F1 button on your keyboard to open the console, then type the command inside the blue text box.

  • bind x forward;sprint - Auto-run until you manually press forward again

  • bind z duck - Toggle crouch until you manually press crouch again

  • bind [rightshift+f11] attack;duck - Auto-attack and toggle crouch

  • bind mouse1 "+attack2;+input.sensitivity .45;input.sensitivity .2" - Lower sensitivity when ADS

  • bind mouse1 +lighttoggle;+attack2  - Turn on flashlight/laser when ADS
