Questions

Rust FAQ

About the data

How exact are the loot chances?

They are computed from the game's loot tables the same way the game rolls them, and checked against 20,000 fills of sample containers done by the game's own code on our server.

How are the seed maps made?

Each map is generated by the Rust dedicated server for that seed and map size and drawn with the game's own map renderer. Ore nodes are placed at random every time a server starts, so the ore layer shows where ores occur, not fixed spots.
