RUSTBENCH

In-game binds

Rust in-game binds. Pick your key, copy a command, and paste it into the F1 console. Replace key in each row with the button you want to use. Binds with a demo show what the bind looks like in-game — the clip only loads when you open it.

  • Zoom

    Hold the key to temporarily zoom your camera in and out (field of view). Handy for spotting players at a distance.

    bind +fov 90;fov 70
  • Lookatradius Toggle

    Press once to toggle how far away you can use/interact with objects.

    bind ~client.lookatradius 0;client.lookatradius 0.2
  • Clear memory / cache

    Press to free up RAM and clear cached assets. Can smooth out stutters after playing for many hours.

    bind gc.collect pool.clear_assets pool.clear_memory pool.clear_prefabs
  • Combat log

    Opens the text console and prints a combat log: recent damage you took and dealt, weapons used, and who was involved.

    bind consoletoggle;clear;combatlog
  • Maxgibs -1

    Sets max gibs to -1, removing debris from destroyed objects. Useful for raiding; fewer particles means better visual during base destruction.

    After pasting the bind, press your key twice in-game so the setting applies.

    bind effects.maxgibs -1
  • Auto-run

    Hold the key to run forward automatically (same as holding W + sprint). Release to stop.

    bind forward;sprint
  • PVP zoom (while aiming)

    While you aim down sights (right mouse), this toggles a wider view in your optic so you can track targets more easily. Common PVP quality-of-life bind.

    bind +attack2;+vm_fov_scale 0;vm_fov_scale 1
  • Auto attack + crouch

    Press key to hit and crouch at the same time. Useful for AFK ecoraiding.

    bind attack;duck
  • Suicide

    Press to kill your character immediately so you can respawn at a bag or bed faster.
