Muting, Reporting, & Censorship
We've made it easier!
I touched on this last summer in a Update 235 but we felt being able to mute other players was a little convoluted and could use a facelift.
We've now added some options to the contact card system. Here you will now have both a mute button and a report button. This could be incredibly useful to someone not wanting to hear close proximity mic spam.
Here you can Mute, Report, and put notes about the player. You can set them as friendly or enemy.
Reporting players for bad behavior is always good as it leave a "papertrail" and many community servers scrub for these reports. Using in-game reporting options will capture all the relevant information required to check into them.
Always good to check with your favorite server of choice on their preferred way to report.

Creator Spotlight
This month we have Real&Game! He specializes in recreating life-size Rust items in the real world.
"I've known the game for about six years. And one day I just wanted to make a real thing from the game, so that it would always be with me. Making a real things from the game and holding it in my hands is a fantastic feeling. Words cannot say it. I love being a part of the game, I enjoy my hobby and I will do cooler stuff whenever possible."
He's made everything from workbenches to snowmobile replicas!

Banditcamp in Unreal
I'm a little late on discovering this gem but omar 8-BIT redid Bandit in Unreal Engine 5. It's pretty great and gets bonus point for using Anno1800 soundtrack for it! One of my personal faves.
