every wipe with the RustSurvivor Rust+ Discord bot and raid alerts

RustSurvivor (sometimes written Rust Survivor) is a Rust+ (Rust Plus) bot and Discord bot for the game Rust. It stays connected to your server through the official Rust+ companion feature and sends raid alarms, team chat and tracked players to Discord, Telegram and your browser, even while you are offline. The Rust tools at rustsurvivor.com/tools are free for everyone.

Sign in with Steam at rustsurvivor.com/start, add the RustSurvivor extension once to link Rust+, then pair your server in game (Esc → Rust+ → Pair Server). Add the Discord bot with /install if you want it. A short guided tour (shown once, replay it from the tour button at the top right) and a "Get set up" checklist in the dashboard walk you through every step. It takes about 5 minutes and the first 24 hours are free, no card needed.

No. RustSurvivor runs in the cloud 24/7, so your dashboard stays connected and sends alerts even when your PC is off. Just open the browser dashboard anytime to check in.

Yes. The dashboard and live server panel work in any browser on your phone, tablet or PC. No app install needed.

Link the RustSurvivor Telegram bot: open the Telegram bot tab in the dashboard (rustsurvivor.com/app?tab=telegram, or the Connect apps tab on a server page), tap Open Telegram and press Start. Raid alarms, deaths, tracked players, upkeep and wipes then reach your phone, even with the game closed. Raid alarms repeat every minute until someone taps I’m on it, and Send alarm sound gives you a loud raid alarm tone to set as the chat’s sound. Telegram is part of Pro and the open beta. With Pro you can also turn on a real phone call in Online raid mode: when alarms keep going off, nobody is online and nobody answers on Telegram, RustSurvivor calls your verified number (press 1 if you are on it). The Discord bot works on your phone too, through the Discord app.

Yes, with Pro or the open beta. In Settings, card API & Home Assistant, create a personal API token and press Copy Home Assistant config: it gives you ready-made Home Assistant switches for your smart switches, with the token kept in secrets.yaml. Add a webhook URL to get smart alarms, online raids, teammate and tracker events, switch changes, timers and wipes as signed JSON in Home Assistant, IFTTT or any https endpoint. Alexa and Google work through Home Assistant, and Stream Deck through an HTTP request plugin or the Home Assistant plugin. Up to 5 tokens and 5 webhooks per account; revoke a token any time.

If your raid alarms keep going off and nobody on your team is online, RustSurvivor steps up the alerts: first the raid alert in #alerts, then a loud Telegram alert that repeats until someone taps I’m on it (Telegram is part of Pro and the open beta), plus a last @everyone ping. It stops as soon as someone comes online or the alarms go quiet. Change the timings in Settings → 🚨 Smart Alarm or in the 🚨 Smart Alarm group of #settings.

Yes. Settings → ✏️ Alert messages lets you rewrite the smart alarm, online raid, teammate online / offline / died, timer finished and reminder, and TC decay alerts with placeholders like {name}, {grid}, {server} and {time}, with a live preview and Reset to default. The text is used in team chat and in the Discord alert, for all servers or one server. Up to 200 characters and no @everyone or mentions. Telegram keeps its own cards.

All in one card: Settings → 🚨 Smart Alarm (also in a server’s Settings and the 🚨 Smart Alarm group of #settings in Discord). Switch each place on or off: in game, Discord (ping None, @here or @everyone, and an optional read-aloud TTS alert), Telegram and the website popup with its alarm sound (the siren, or Klaxon, Triple beep, Rising sweep, Buzzer or Chime, with loop and volume). Online raid mode is there too, and every paired alarm has Rename (name and message), its own Sound and Test. In game, !alarms lists your alarms and !alarm <name> shows one.

Yes. Team chat commands are available to your squad, and Discord access can be shared with the people you want on the server.

Smart devices reset on a wipe. If the server shows offline, pair it again in game, then pair your devices. A wipe brings a new map, so when RustSurvivor sees a real wipe it clears last wipe’s map notes, farm routes, teammate trails and shared-map drawings by itself. Your trackers, settings, Discord and Telegram setup and shared map links stay, and Team Stats history carries over.

Yes, the open beta is free for everyone. Sign in with Steam, connect Discord at rustsurvivor.com/connect-discord, then open a Beta access ticket in the RustSurvivor Discord with your SteamID64 or Steam profile link. The bot checks the link and turns Beta on: every Pro feature with about half of Pro’s limits: 20 tracked players, 50 AI questions a day and 5 shared map links per server.

The free trial tracks 10 players at once, Beta 20 and Pro 40, across all your servers. Paste a BattleMetrics link in the Trackers tab or use /tracker add in Discord; you get an alert in game and in #tracker when they come online or go offline.

Tag your tracked players with their clan and RustSurvivor counts each clan for you, like “ABC 4/6 online”, on the Trackers page, the server panel, #tracker and in game with !clans. You get an alert when a clan starts logging on together, and when the whole clan has been offline for a while: a raid window.

At the end of every wipe RustSurvivor makes a recap card of your team: playtime, deaths, raids, top killers and awards like Most time online and Longest life. It is posted in #activity when the wipe is detected, and you can download it or share a link from Team stats.

Yes. Press Share map on the live map and send the link: friends open your live map with no account, with your map notes and farm routes, and your team’s positions only if you switch that on. With "Friends can draw too" they can draw lines, arrows and pins that everyone on the link sees live. Pick when it expires (24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, at the wipe or never) and whether monuments show as icons or names, and close it any time; viewers are disconnected at once. Show link brings the address and QR back any time, New link gives a leaked link a new address, Share to gives ready messages for Discord, Steam, WhatsApp, Telegram and X, and there is no limit on viewers. Players linked to a note show on its card and open their BattleMetrics page. Open links per server: Pro 10, Beta 5, free trial 2.

Yes. In the Players tab press the pin button next to a player and tap a note: they are linked at once, with Undo, and tapping a ticked note removes them. The note card lists its players with online or offline when known, and Edit there adds or removes players. Up to 20 per note. Friends on a shared map link that shows notes see the names, live, and can tap one to open their BattleMetrics page (or Steam profile when there is none).

Yes, on Pro and Beta. On the live map open Map layers, then Trails: a coloured line per teammate for the last hour, 6 hours, day or the whole wipe, a "Where we’ve been" heatmap, and Replay to watch the team move at ×10, ×60 or ×600. Only your own team is recorded, for the current wipe only, and only you and your Team Sharing members can see it.

Tap it on the map: the card has Edit, Hide and Delete (notes can also Move, routes can Edit path to drag their points). The notes list and Map layers > Farm routes have an eye, a pencil and a bin on every row, plus Hide all / Show all and Select to delete several. Hiding is only on your map; deleting asks first and gives you about 6 seconds to Undo.

No. Only one bot speaks in team chat per team; pick who speaks with the Team link button in the server page header (also in Dashboard → Servers → Team link). With Team link you can also share trackers, map notes, timers and devices with that teammate, only if you both agree, and unlink any time.

Yes. The raid and recycler calculators, the genetics calculator for plants and for cows and sheep, the electricity planner, console commands and the wipe calendar are free for everyone at rustsurvivor.com/tools, no account needed.

Yes, three ways. Scan from a screenshot reads a picture you paste. Scan with your phone camera: point your phone at the monitor showing the genes, line them up in the box, capture, then check and fix the genes before adding. Scan Rust (Chrome, Edge or Firefox on a computer) shares the Rust window with the page and adds each seed or clone as you click it in your inventory or look at a planted plant; use fullscreen 16:9, UI scale 1.00 and Windows HDR off. All of them read the genes on your own device; nothing is uploaded or recorded.

Rust stopped sending vending machine and event map markers (cargo ship, patrol heli, travelling vendor, oil rig crates) to Rust+, so no Rust+ tool can see them any more. For Oil Rig, wire an RF Receiver to a Smart Alarm and use the Oil Rig crate timer.

An assistant you can ask in team chat (!ai), in Discord (/ai) or on the dashboard. It answers only from real Rust data and RustSurvivor’s own guides, never made up: a question it was not taught gets a short “I don’t have that one yet” with a link to the docs. It runs on our own server, so your questions are not sent to another AI company, and help tickets get an instant answer from the same guides. On the website you can also ask by voice (tap or hold the mic, or hold Space) and have answers read aloud; speech is handled by your browser and RustSurvivor never receives audio. Pro includes 100 questions a day, Beta 50 and the free trial 20.

Yes. #team-chat shows your in-game team chat live and #clan-chat your clan chat, and anything you write there is sent to that chat in game.

Yes. Turn on Auto-translate above the chat on the website and pick one of 20 languages: every new team and clan chat line from other players is translated live by Google Translate or DeepL, with the original kept above. In Discord, use Apps → Translate on a message or /translate. Translating does not use up your AI questions.

A free browser extension for Chrome and Firefox. On BattleMetrics player pages it shows true total hours, other names used and ban flags, with a 14-day activity chart, and it adds Steam data on Steam profiles. Get it at rustsurvivor.com/smartintel.

Invites are coming soon: invite friends and you both get 3 days of Pro. Until then, every account can try full Pro free for 24 hours, no card needed.

Yes. Authentication is handled through official Steam and Discord flows, and sensitive data is protected with standard security practices.
