❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What is the standard competitive world size in Rust?

A world size of 4250 to 4500 is the standard for high-population servers (200-400 players), providing balanced spacing between tier 3 monuments.

Will changing the seed wipe player blueprints in Rust?

No, map seeds only wipe the physical world map (.map and .sav files). Player blueprints (.db files) remain intact unless you perform a full BP wipe.
