1. Ok so i started a server and i got this really shitty map so i went into my .Bat and i tried to change it to this
    +server.level "Procedural map"
    +server.worldsize 8000
    +server.seed 439876134
    And i got the same shitty map. No matter what i did i got that same shitty map and i wasted 2 hours of my time trying to figure it out. Then when i stopped giving a damn i went ahead and just played the server, after a while i wanted to use Admin commands so i typed Ownerid (Steam ID) (Steam Name) and i could not use admin commands, then i used Moderatorid (steamid) (steamname) same thing. So what i am asking is WTF do i do. Pls help me. (the rust server.txt is my .bat)

    Procedural Map is the correct name, not Procedural map; you do not need to specify this though, as it is the default map. I would recommend placing most of that in your server/identity/server.cfg though.

    The ownerid command is not persistent, so you'd need to use server.writecfg after using it, else manually add your user to users.cfg.
     
  3. How would i place it there exactly?
    [DOUBLEPOST=1460087410][/DOUBLEPOST]And where would i put in it (I am super new to this)

  4. Hi!
    Make a file ... server.cfg ... and place it in C:\rustServer\server\MyRustServer\cfg\ (MyRustServer - your server.identity)

    In this file (server.cfg) paste:

    server.hostname "My Rust Server"
    server.port 28015
    rcon.port 28016
    server.maxplayers 500
    server.level "Procedural Map"
    server.worldsize 8000
    server.seed 439876134
    server.saveinterval 600
    logfile “output.txt”
    server.headerimage "http://www.your-server.com/header.jpg"
    server.url "www.myamazingrustserver.com"
    server.description "My server\n is amazing"

    Now, your new bat file:

    C:\steamCMD\steamcmd.exe +login anonymous +force_install_dir C:\rustServer\ +app_update 258550 -beta experimental +quit
    RustDedicated.exe -batchmode +server.identity "MyRustServer" +rcon.password "Veggie" -load

    If i wrote something wrong, sorry! :)

    Regards!

  5. Holy shit, Thank you so much *hug* it finally changed the map, I am so happy!!!
     
  6. ;) No problem !
     
  7. I apologize, decided to change myself server.seed and doesn't work
    Start:
    Code:
    @echo off
    cls
    title Starting Rust Dedicated
    RustDedicated -batchmode -nographics +server.seed 127001
    rust_dedicated\server\my_server_identity\cfg\server.cfg:
    Code:
    server.seed 127001
    rust_dedicated\cfg\server.cfg:
    Code:
    server.seed 127001
    I use 3 options, nothing works

    There's no reason why that wouldn't work. The first 2 are the only valid locations though.
     
  9. the +server.seed seed needs to be in quotes: +server.seed "127001"
     
  10. it should be without the quotes but I find its always better to put it in the bat file rather than the server.cfg file
     
  11. It works fine without quotes only if its a small number, doesnt work with big numbers like 423423423432 ..to be safe i always use quotes and it works
    everytime with every kind of number. And i always use in the batch file.

    Quotes are indeed not needed; they are only needed when you have something with spaces. The Rust Dev docs even use it without quotation marks. Your example though is over the limit for the seed setting. Reference: Dedicated Server - Rust Dev Wiki.
     
  13. Ive had this issue in the past where i couldnt set a seed in the batch, i used quotes and it worked right away, i still set it quotes in all my servers, it never fails.

    Were you using commas in your seed number? I've had no issues setting it without quotes over the past year it's been there.

    The game adds automate quotes as well:

  15. This is my current batch for one of my servers

    start RustDedicated.exe -batchmode +server.hostname "Rusty|3X|Insta|Loot|TPH||QS|Trade|Stacks|PM|Kit|Clans|NoAbuse" +server.ip "74.91.123.29" +server.port 21215 +rcon.ip 0.0.0.0 +rcon.port 21216 +server.maxplayers 250 -server.worldsize 4500 +server.seed "40316"

    Yup, and it would work without quotation marks, just as the other settings do. I've tested it all the way up to 2147483647 (the max seed number). The only setting in your startup that may need quotes is your hostname, but without spaces you may not even need them there. Either way, it will perform and handle the settings the same granted there are no spaces and such. If something is quoted, it will accept that instead of adding its own quotes, if something doesn't have them, it will add them.
     
  17. Unless they fixed it, but i remember very well there was 1 time where it just didnt work unless i used quotes, so there afterwards i always use quotes because i know it works everytime. :D
