RustPlusBot is the most advanced Rust+ Team Chat Discord Bot that unlocks the full power of the Rust+ companion.
With RustPlusBot you can: receive notifications about in-game events, control Smart Switches, find vending machine items, and more... entirely in team chat! You can also use the bot's Discord commands to control Smart Switches and get useful team information in Discord.
How does it work? The bot connects to your Rust server in the same manner as the Rust+ mobile app, but intelligently handles team chat to process commands. The Rust+ mobile app does not have to be installed on your phone to use the bot.
Powered with AI! Ask the RustPlusBot AI assistant questions in team chat about all things RUST, your bot, server, team, events, paired devices, and more...
Have any questions? Take a look at the Frequently Asked Questions to get answers quickly, or you can contact the developer.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Quickly find answers to the most common questions about RustPlusBot:
-
Question: How many players can use the bot in the same Discord?
Answer: There is no limit to how many players can use the bot's commands, however, only one player can pair to the bot at a time (see Update Token).
-
Question: Can other team members use the wire tool and receive device pairing notifications?
Answer: Only the player paired to the bot can receive device pairing notifications to pair devices with the bot.
- Question: I've invited the bot to my Discord but nothing happened, now what?
-
Question: I'm trying to pair with Rust+ in-game, but the Pair button is not showing on the screen... what should I do?
Answer: You should install the Rust+ mobile app on your phone and login with your Steam account to fix this issue.
-
Question: Is this cheating or some kind of exploit?
Answer: The bot talks to a server the same way the Rust+ mobile app does and therefore is not an exploit or cheat. Many server admins already allow its use and Facepunch has said they are ok with it.
-
Question: What servers has the bot been tested on or approved to use with?
Answer: The bot was developed while playing on Rusty Moose and PlayRust Reddit servers, and was allowed by the admins.
-
Question: Can I use the bot with the console version of Rust?
Answer: No. Unfortunately, there is not a console version of Rust+ yet.
-
Question: Will the bot work on a modded server?
Answer: It may or may not work with a modded server. Some modded servers restrict team chat to the Rust+ service while in-game and others restrict map markers to disable bot events.
-
Question: The bot works on my modded server, but the events respawn faster. How can I configure this?
Answer: RustPlusBot allows you to configure the events respawn ratio in the Events config. Set this ratio to how fast events respawn, for example: 3 for 33% faster.
-
Question: Can I change the prefix or any bot commands?
Answer: You can change the bot's default prefix and create Aliases to change bot commands and its responses in RustPlusBot settings.
-
Question: Can I permit or restrict who can use the bot commands on my team?
Answer: You can create Permissions to restrict bot commands to certain players in RustPlusBot settings. There is also a Black List you can configure to ignore certain players, or a White List to allow all.
-
Question: Can I change the bot's language to something other than English?
Answer: You can configure options for various team chat announcements in RustPlusBot settings.
-
Question: How do I turn off or disable the new vending machine and event announcements / notifications?
Answer: Yes, you can change the bot's default output language in RustPlusBot settings.
-
Question: Can I control any Smart Switch on the map if I guess its device ID?
Answer: No. Building privilege is required to control a Smart Switch.
-
Question: Is it possible to toggle a device using only the paired name?
Answer: Yes, you can toggle any paired device by simply typing its name as the command (make sure you include the command prefix). Example:
!Turrets
-
Question: I'm trying to pair a device, but the bot isn't receiving the notification... what is wrong?
Answer: Most likely your bot's pairing needs to be updated. Go to RustPlusBot settings and update your token, then wait for the bot to connect to the server and try pairing the device again.
-
Question: How can I get team leader from others when using the promote command?
Answer: In order for other team members to promote when they are leader, they must have registered with RustPlusBot at https://bot.rustplus.io/register.
- Question: I've changed servers and paired the bot, but it still connects to my old server?
-
Question: I've switched my server and paired the bot already, but I keep getting notifications from the previous one?
Answer: To unpair from the previous server: connect to the previous server and then press Escape, click Pairing, and click Disable.
-
Question: I'm trying to switch to another server, but my bot is not changing servers? I am also using the mobile app.
Answer: Using the Rust+ mobile app can interfere with the bot's pairing capabilities. To fix this, go to RustPlusBot settings and update your token, then wait for the bot to become active. Now try pairing your server again in-game: press Escape, click Pairing, and click Resend.
-
Question: I'm trying to change the paired player to the bot, however, it keeps staying paired to the same player?
Answer: If your bot is still using the old player when updating the bot's token, then try using a different browser or device. Steam sometimes caches this info in the current browser.
-
Question: My bot has stopped responding to my commands even though it says it's connected when using rp!bot. How can I fix this?
Answer: It is recommended to reset the Rust+ communication with the server: While in-game, press Escape, click Pairing, and click Disable. Wait about ten seconds and then click Enable.
- Question: My Discord tracker isn't updating... is there something wrong?
-
Question: Is there a limit of how many devices can be paired to the bot?
Answer: There is a limit of 60, however, the Rust+ service will become sluggish after 30 paired devices because of the rate limiter.
-
Question: My server enforces a chat delay and I think it's messing up the bot, how can I fix this?
Answer: You can configure a team chat delay for the bot in RustPlusBot settings for your Discord.
-
Question: The commands aren't working in team chat, but work when typed in Discord... what is wrong?
Answer: This sometimes happens with modded servers... the server is probably blocking the incoming team chat that the bot receives. To get around this, you can enable the Silence the bot so it only responds to commands by posting to the Main Discord Channel option in RustPlusBot settings. However, you will still have to type the team chat commands in Discord.
-
Question: What happened to the oil rig respawn notification and bradley tank explosion announcement?
Answer: The Rust developers removed the ability for bots to have access to this information by making changes to the Rust+ service. See: May 4, 2023 Rust update
-
Question: Why does the bot sometimes say the wrong location for the dropped locked crate and patrol heli crash?
Answer: This is because both the dropped Locked Crate and Patrol Helicopter debris locations are estimated by the bot as a result of Facepunch limiting what information is sent to the bot via the Rust+ service. See: May 4, 2023 Rust update
-
Question: If I stop the bot when I'm not playing, will I still lose the bot's credit?
Answer: No. When the bot is stopped, your bot credit will not incur usage.
- Question: How do I turn off the bot temporarily to not use my credit hours?
-
Question: Can I use the bot to kick or remove someone from the team?
Answer: Unfortunately, you cannot. This is not supported by the Rust+ service.
-
Question: How can I control the bot using my voice? Do I need Alexa or Google?
Answer: You can use your Amazon Alexa to command the RustPlusBot after enabling the Alexa skill.
-
Question: If I switch Discord servers, do I keep the credit I've purchased?
Answer: Yes, you can use the RustPlusBot Credit Manager to transfer any available credits to another Discord server.
- Question: How can I stop the bot's speech echo when multiple bot players are on the same team?
-
Question: Are you also the developer of Rustangelo and Rustrician.io?
Answer: That is correct! RustPlusBot was created by the same developer with the support of many dedicated Rust players.
-
