Quick Take4 changes

The 2021-05-28 update for Rust brings new features, improvements, and fixes.

  • New: Demo shot system, contact system, and Rust+ IFTTT integration.
  • Updated: Improved monument spawning, battery placement, rock colliders, and ladder hatch behavior.
  • Fixed: Numerous bugs including underwater monuments, terrain artifacts, river overlaps, and more.
  • Kept: Known issues with ice lakes generation and a bone error (will be fixed later).

Features

  • • New Demo shot system
  • • Contact system
  • • Rust+ IFTTT integration

Improvements

  • • Don't spawn harbors in tight places where they end up adjusting the coastline opposite to them (looks bad, leads to glitchy topologies)
  • • Full rewrite of monument prefab prioritization when determining their spawn locations and which monuments not to spawn if there isn't enough space for all of them
  • • Changed giant excavator monument to default priority
  • • Changed mining_quarry_c monument to default priority
  • • Can now press Reload to change the colour of placed electrical wires and hoses
  • • Added a tooltip when first using a grenade to explain the controls
  • • Prevented tree X markers from travelling too far down the tree
  • • Ladder hatches that hit a vehicle while opening will now cancel their animation (like regular doors)
  • • Allow gestures to be used while mounted on Secretlab chair
  • • Reduced road vehicle wrecks to lessen the impact on roadside junkpiles
  • • Improved small battery placement
  • • Small battery can now be rotated before deployment
  • • Small battery can now be deployed on tables / boxes
  • • Censorplayerlist now enabled by default on servers
  • • Rock colliders improved, still requires continued work
  • • Community cards and chips are now shown on the poker table itself

Fixed

  • • Fixed certain monuments sometimes spawning partially underwater
  • • Fixed terrain height artifacts that were causing extreme slopes on certain seeds
  • • Fixed edge case where tunnel entrance would not connect to tunnel network
  • • Fixed tunnel network gap when two stations were spawned right next to each other and a tunnel tried to cross them
  • • Fixed harbors and fishing villages spawning at ridiculous slopes
  • • Fixed edge case that could make rivers overlap each other
  • • Fixed being able to break Injured animation by playing a gesture
  • • Fixed demos over an hour not displaying time correctly in the demo list
  • • Fixed being able to shoot over a ledge while in a beach chair at extreme height differences
  • • Fixed some headgear blocking vision while injured (Lunar New Year masks, NVG goggles, etc)
  • • Fixed M39 viewmodel sometimes ejecting two shells every shot
  • • Sleeping players will no longer blink
  • • Fixed some potential gib errors when destroying bases (likely resulting in a disconnect)
  • • Fixed Storage Monitor bounds, often causing LOS to fail resulting in not sending the paring notification to app
  • • Fixed several minor Work Cart train bugs

Known Issues

  • • Icelakes not generating on procedural maps – this will be fixed in July's update.
  • • Bone error in SkeletonProperties – this is a harmless server warning which can be ignored. We're investigating the cause.
