Hello everyone and WELCOME to the mid-February 2023 wipe! Today we’ll be wiping the server at 2pm EDT. Included in this wipe is the Skill Tree XP. The BP’s won’t wipe until the first Thursday of March and that cycle will continue from now on.
The new map is a customized procedurally generated map, size 4500, with all of the standard monuments along with some custom ones. If you’ve been watching the map update preview channel in Discord, you’ve already seen some of those monuments! Our events will include some old favorites and some new ones. These events will be listed prior to the wipe. We may have some additional plugins added to the server.
I plan on creating a new player hub on the server this wipe. It will be a place relatively close to most spawns that will have everything a new player needs; workbenches, recyclers, furnaces, etc. It will also have a hotel where players can rent a room for 5 scrap per night. Each room will have a bed and a box to store personal items in. To renew your stay, you’ll go to the hotel clerk NPC in the lobby. If you outstay your welcome, any loot you’ve stored away in there will go bye-bye so make sure you pay for your room or get your stuff out.
There’s not much else going on for this wipe. The next Rust update isn’t for 2 more weeks so this should be a relatively easy one for us.
