Saving maps entities, player data in prep for wipe?

Hey guys,

I had a quick question...Facepunch plans to wipe this Thursday in lieu of the massive update coming, after we had already wiped our servers this past Thursday. I was wondering how I would go about saving the map and all of it's entities as well as player data so my players don't have to start over again within a week?


Thanks,

Well this up coming Thursday will be a force wipe. You have two options: if there are no major procedural generation changes you can change the name of your .sav file (the numbers at the end). Your second option is to use a plugin like Copy-Paste for Rust | Oxide and Inventory Guardian for Rust | Oxide. Regardless, that's not an optimal solution. I doubt all the structured on your old map will paste well over the new one.
