how to use?

Closed 1.0.0 1.0.0

just wondering if you purchase this how do you use it in game as an admin? is there a command you run at a certain section to place it, or do you add it to a folder and when a map is generated that it appears onto the map at random like other monuments?

Your buying the prefab. you must use rust edit to spawn it into your map and add the surrounding textures etc to it. its not somthing you just spawn in-game.

its a premade edit really.

I was about to ask the same thing. If I may suggest it, please add a note to the description that this is something specifically for custom made maps, not something to be added to existing maps from in-game or something? I see now that this is in the "prefab" section, but it's highlighted from the front page so... ?  It would probably save you having to answer this question again. haha

Ok, I got as far as downloading the Map from my server and loading it in Rust Edit then placing the Custom prefab in the map, I can save it and replace the file on my server?

Yes does your server support dropbox for custom maps? if so thats the easiest. also. when making a custom map. make sure to change the name to somthing like you already have, but make a slight change to it. so lets say make it procedualmap.400.123.204.mapp   < add that extra "p" on the end, cause when players go to join, it will automatically download the map into the rust files. if its named the same, and they have already played that map for instance they will get an error while connecting.

so bare that in mind.

once you place it in rust edit. make sure to add the textures etc that comes with the map file within rust edit. (this will automatically place the ground textures and heights i pre set for the themepark)

save it. put it in your dropbox. or if your running the server from a home based server i'd assume you will have to put it else where. i've only ever used the drop box method. so some googling will be required.

I figured it out, seems I have to save it as a custom map with a different name, send it to my dropbox then create the link and change the dl=0 to dl=1 at the end else it doesn't work. Then I paste that link with the modified dl=1 into my custom command line options on my server hosting site in the field, map URL. And presto, new map downloads to my server when I start it up and downloads to my laptop when I join. Was not too bad...btw, really nice job on that! Plans to get the Ferris wheel running?
