Console commands for the F1 menu or RCON. Source: a community-maintained export of Rust's own generated command metadata - treat this as a helpful reference, not an exhaustive one.

Settings for your own game you can change from the F1 console: frame rate, field of view, graphics, sound and controls. Each shows its default value.

929 commands

`paint.leftsided`	Change the paint UI to be on the left side of the screen	paint	variable	`False`
`paint.linetooldirectionbufferdistance`	The distance the cursor needs to travel before the line tool will lock the direction of the line.	paint	variable	`10`
`paint.maxbrushsize`	Sets the maximum brush size in the painting menu, re-open the menu to apply changes.	paint	variable	`100`
`paint.selectedbrush`	Gets or sets the current brush in the sign painter by index (0 is first, wraps around)	paint	variable	`0`

`paint.usepreviewedlinetool`	Use the previewing version of the painting line tool.	paint	variable	`False`
`particle.ik`	(Generated) Enables inverse kinematics solving on character rigs; disabling IK reduces CPU cost but removes foot planting and hand placement corrections	particle	variable	`True`
`particle.quality`	(Generated) Controls global particle system quality (0-100); lower values reduce particle counts and disable expensive effects to improve performance	particle	variable	`100`
`particle.simulationspace`	(Generated) When enabled, particle systems simulate in world space rather than local space; affects how particles trail when the emitter moves	particle	variable	`False`
`party.party_invite_expiry`	(Generated) Total seconds after which a party invite is fully removed from the system even if shown in UI	party	variable	`120`
`party.party_invites_enabled`	(Generated) When enabled, players can send and receive party invites; disabling blocks all new party invite functionality	party	variable	`True`
`party.party_invite_timeout`	(Generated) Seconds a party invite remains active before automatically expiring if the recipient has not responded	party	variable	`10`
`physics.autosynctransforms`	(Generated) When enabled, Unity Physics auto-syncs transform changes to physics each frame; disable to manually control when transforms sync	physics	variable	`True`
`physics.batchsynctransforms`	(Generated) When enabled, physics transform syncs are batched per frame for efficiency; disable to force immediate per-object sync	physics	variable	`True`
`physics.clientragdollmode`	The collision detection mode that client-side ragdolls should use	physics	variable	`1`
`ping.auto_refresh_region`	(Generated) When enabled, region ping estimates are automatically refreshed in the background to keep server list latency data up to date	ping	variable	`True`
`ping.ping_estimate_logging`	(Generated) When enabled, logs ping estimation results to the console; useful for debugging regional latency measurement accuracy	ping	variable	`False`
`ping.ping_estimation`	(Generated) When enabled, the ping estimator collects latency samples to regional servers; disable to suppress background ping traffic	ping	variable	`False`
`ping.ping_parallel`	(Generated) When enabled, ping estimation sends samples to all servers in parallel for faster results; uses more bandwidth simultaneously	ping	variable	`False`
`ping.ping_refresh_interval`	(Generated) Interval in minutes between automatic background ping estimation refreshes for server list region latency sorting	ping	variable	`45`
`ping.ping_samples`	(Generated) Number of ping samples collected per estimation cycle; more samples give a more accurate average latency but take longer to complete	ping	variable	`5`
`planner.floodfilldebug`	(Generated) When enabled, draws debug visualisations for the building planner flood-fill guide system showing fill cells and connection points; admin-only	planner	variable	`False`
`player.cold_breath`	(Generated) When enabled, renders a cold breath vapour effect from the player's mouth in cold biomes and at night; disable to reduce visual clutter or improve performance	player	variable	`True`
`playercull.debug`	(Generated) Enables debug logging for the player culling system, which hides players beyond a certain distance to reduce network and rendering overhead	playercull	variable	`False`
`playercull.enabled`	Enable/Disable player culling entirely (always render even when hidden)	playercull	variable	`True`
`playercull.maxplayerdist`	Maximum distance to show any players in meters	playercull	variable	`5000`
`playercull.maxsleeperdist`	Maximum distance to show sleepers in meters	playercull	variable	`30`
`playercull.minculldist`	Players of any kind will always be visible closer than this	playercull	variable	`20`
`playercull.updaterate`	How many times per second to check for visibility	playercull	variable	`5`
`playercull.visquality`	Quality of Vis : 0 = Chest check, 1 = Chest+Head, 2 = Chest+Head+Arms, 3 = Chest+Head+Arms+Feet	playercull	variable	`2`
`player.eye_blinking`	(Generated) When enabled, the player character model plays eye blinking animations; disable to freeze eyes open, useful for cinematic close-ups	player	variable	`True`
`player.eye_movement`	(Generated) When enabled, the player character model plays procedural eye movement animations, tracking nearby points of interest	player	variable	`True`
`player.footik`	(Generated) When enabled, uses inverse kinematics to plant the player's feet on uneven terrain, preventing feet from floating above steps and slopes	player	variable	`True`
`player.footikdistance`	(Generated) Maximum distance in metres at which foot IK is evaluated for other players; reducing this improves performance on servers with many visible players	player	variable	`30`
`player.footikrate`	The rate at which the foot IK traces to the ground. Higher number is better performance, but less smooth.	player	variable	`0.1`
`player.infiniteammo`	(Generated) When enabled, the local player has unlimited ammo and never needs to reload; intended for testing and cinematic use only	player	variable	`False`
`player.noclipspeed`	(Generated) Normal noclip movement speed in metres per second; controls how fast the player flies when noclip is active without holding the sprint or slow modifier	player	variable	`10`
`player.noclipspeedfast`	(Generated) Fast noclip movement speed in metres per second; active when holding the sprint key while noclipping	player	variable	`50`
`player.noclipspeedslow`	(Generated) Slow noclip movement speed in metres per second; active when holding the slow-move modifier key while noclipping	player	variable	`2`
`player.recoilcomp`	(Generated) When enabled, applies client-side recoil compensation to smooth out the visual kick of weapons; disable for a more raw recoil feel	player	variable	`True`
`player.triggerfix`	(Generated) Experimental: when enabled, applies a positional correction fix for trigger colliders on the player to reduce false-positive overlap detections	player	variable	`False`
`player.usecinematicavatar`	Use the cinematic avatar when playing cinematic animations	player	variable	`False`
`pool.debug`	(Generated) When enabled, logs additional diagnostic information about pool hits, misses, and spills to the console	pool	variable	`False`
