// 01 — Command
RCON command center
Run RCON commands with autocomplete, keep a permanent log of every action, archive in-game chat, and replay admin interventions from any moderator on the team.
RCONchat logsaudit
Centralize RCON, live status, player history, cached maps, plugin monitoring, VIP roles, chat logs and PvP context. One Rust admin tool for the people who actually keep the server alive at 2 a.m.
Six product surfaces, built around the loop of watching the server, reacting to players, and keeping the build healthy.
Run RCON commands with autocomplete, keep a permanent log of every action, archive in-game chat, and replay admin interventions from any moderator on the team.
Every player, online and historical. Steam IDs, alts, joins, deaths, chat trails per name and per session — the receipts you need before you ban or promote.
Cached renders, named monuments, and PvP heat overlays tied to real positions. Pull a saved render in one click instead of re-generating it every wipe.
Connect your own RustMaps license, generate maps, store .map URLs, inspect monuments, and watch usage limits from the panel.
See what's installed, cached, and out of date. Sync over RCON, browse marketplace metadata, and stop guessing which version is actually running on the box.
Manage roles and groups in Oxide / uMod with expiration dates, internal notes per buyer, and a clean view of who's paid for what — so VIP perks don't become a Discord-DM job.
Each workflow is a dedicated page inside the panel — built for the question you're trying to answer, not for a feature list.
RCON, players, maps, plugins, VIPs and logs in one workspace for daily server operations.
→Live command bar, replayable logs, archived chat — the operational view for any moderator on shift.
→Status, players, maps and plugins per server, isolated per instance, so multi-server admins don't cross wires.
→Search any SteamID, surface every session, kill, chat line and connection — context before the ban hammer.
→Use your own RustMaps license to generate, cache and link maps from the panel.
→Inventory installed plugins, sync over RCON, and pull marketplace metadata to spot drift fast.
→Roles, group memberships, expirations and per-buyer notes — perks managed like a real product.
Plain-English pages for common Rust server administration terms, built to help new owners understand the tools before they open the panel.
Remote console explained: what it does, why it matters, and how admins use it safely.
→The difference between command tools, panels, logs, player history, and moderation workflows.
→A practical overview of the recurring work behind running a stable Rust community.
→How reports, player history, chat, PvP context, and RCON actions fit together.
→Connect your server to Discord for alerts, moderation events, and team coordination without staying in the panel.
→How an in-panel report queue replaces scattered Discord DMs and gives moderators structured complaint context.
→Invite moderators, scope their access per server, and share player logs so the whole team works from the same picture.
→Review player context, issue RCON bans and kicks, and keep a searchable log of every moderation action.
We didn't ship a thinner product to charge less — the cost just hasn't ballooned. Side-by-side against what most teams currently pay.
