Rust Server Variables

Give Item List →

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.

Server configuration variables (convars) for server owners: set them in server.cfg, from the F1 console as an admin, or over RCON. Each shows its default value.

`physics.groundwatchdelay`	(Generated) Seconds between ground-watch checks on a player; lower values detect world-fall issues faster but increase CPU overhead	physics	variable	`0.1`	Admin
`physics.groundwatchfails`	(Generated) Number of consecutive ground-watch failures allowed before corrective action is taken on a player who appears to be falling through geometry	physics	variable	`1`	Admin
