Rust July 2022 Patch Notes – March 2, 2023

Drone

The Drone is a new player-controlled craftable deployable, operated from the Computer Station. Easily damaged from impacts. Can be picked up and deployed just about anywhere – but it doesn’t have the best signal, so you’ll need to control it using a nearby Computer Station.

RF Detonated C4
Select the item and click enable RF, then set a frequency. An RF Broadcaster or detonator can then be set to the same frequency and as soon as the C4 detects the signal, BOOM. Please note that C4 deployed outside of your building privilege zone will decay after 24 hours.
