Ive decided to start my own server on Rust due to the amount of hacks and kills, ive been following a video on how to do it but i've already hit an issue.
Ive downloaded the steamCMD and ran the string to get the required files, and in the video when he runs the rust_server.exe the CMD creates additional files when the game loads, however, when i do it, i don't get the additional files.
Can anyone help me out?
Not sure if anyone can help

This should cover everything you need to know:

I have followed the steps in the guide perfectly, however, i still have the same issue that when i either:
A) Launch .bat file, i get the CMD screen but no game screen or
B) Launch rust_server.exe and i get the start rust screen but once i choose my settings its a black screen and the CMD does nothing else past what it is supposed to do.

Okay so there is no file in serverdata/cfg/server.cfg. I understand that it can be created, but i have no idea what actually goes into it. Is there somekind of download of this file?
I have seen comments on a previous question about this and want to mention that all my files are legit -
All commands available can be found here http://playrustwiki.com/wiki/Server_Commands -
thanks.
I created one including the rcon password and server name with a couple of test parameters, but to no avail. The server says it has loaded the file but when i use the console to punch in the password, it still says rcon not set up, i also change a couple things and use the console to save, but no changes are made to the server file. -
The server doesnt change the config file itself it only loads it, you have to do it and restart the server after.
Maybe post your server.cfg (password censored) and tell us how you try to login into rcon. -
ive actually just decided to pay for a 50man server, thanks a bunch for all of your help guys
