RustServerManager for Windows

A tool designed to Install, Update, Auto start RUST servers!

RustServerManager is a extremely light-weight, simplistic & efficient Wrapper for RUST servers hosted on Windows.

Requirements:

• Python 3.9+
• Python added to system path

Features:

• Auto install (Game files, Oxide, Rust Edit).
• Auto update (Game files, Oxide, Rust Edit).
• Crash restart.

Installation:

• Download latest release from https://github.com/8qBITs/RustServerManager/releases
• Create a new directory for the server and extract files into it.
• Run the start.bat
• Thats it, really!

Configuration:

• Server start parameters can be edited inside 'rust_data/config.cfg'
• For auto restarts i recommend https://umod.org/plugins/smooth-restarter
• If you are running vanilla (community) server make sure to set 'modded' to false inside oxide config!
• Make sure to restart server after changing any startup parameters!

Troubleshooting:

• Nothing happens after starting start.bat:
  • 1. No python3 installed.
    • Download it here: https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.10.4/python-3.10.4-amd64.exe
  • 2. No python path found.
    • Run python using cmd with python if there is an error: 'python' is not recognised as an internal or external command you haven't set up python path properly. Watch for fix: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4bUOrMj88Pc&t=351s
