When deciding how many slots to choose, you should think about your servers performance. Not every server can handle 300 players at one time. <a href=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/\">XGamingServer<\/a> recommends these slots depending on the <a href=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/rust-hosting-server\">server package<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Novice 20-30 slots<\/li><li>Rookie 40-60 slots<\/li><li>Pro 70+ slots<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>To change your server slots, go to your server control panel and navigate to the startup section. Scroll down and change the max player value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-59.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"275\" src=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-59-1024x275.png\" alt=\"Slots\" class=\"wp-image-1013\" srcset=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-59-1024x275.png 1024w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-59-600x161.png 600w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-59-300x81.png 300w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-59-768x207.png 768w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-59-370x100.png 370w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-59-270x73.png 270w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-59-570x153.png 570w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-59-740x199.png 740w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-59.png 1524w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Slots<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-server-image\">Server image<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also change the default server image to differentiate from other servers and to attract new players.

This means that almost every Rust server has a different map. But we don&#8217;t want a randomly generated map for many reasons. This is why we will use the <a href=\"https:\/\/rustmaps.com\/\">Rust map gallery<\/a>. It is a great site where you can choose your map from hundreds of already generated Rust maps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We recommend changing the map on your server after each wipe, as it will make the server fresh for your players. Playing the exact same map every wipe can get a bit boring. You should also take a look at your map size and monument placement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-map-size\">Map size<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>First of all, we need to talk about map size. Having a small map on fully populated Rust server will make it lag and could possibly even crash it. On the other hand, if you make your map too big, players will most likely never interact with each other and could leave your server from getting bored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be advised that the popular Launch Site monument is missing on maps smaller than 3500. This might be a reason for some players to not play on your server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I would recommend these map sizes: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>2500 for a small private server with a bunch of friends<\/li><li>3000 for 50 players.<\/li><li>3250 for 100 players<\/li><li>3500 for 150 players.<\/li><li>3750 for 200 players<\/li><li>4000 for 250+players <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-changing-the-map\">Changing the map<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, that you know what map size to choose, go to the <a href=\"https:\/\/rustmaps.com\/\">Rust gallery site<\/a> and change the filters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-23.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-23-1024x354.png\" alt=\"Rust gallery filters\" class=\"wp-image-858\" width=\"650\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-23-1024x354.png 1024w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-23-600x207.png 600w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-23-300x104.png 300w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-23-768x265.png 768w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-23-1536x530.png 1536w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-23-370x128.png 370w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-23-270x93.png 270w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-23-570x197.png 570w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-23-740x255.png 740w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-23.png 1871w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>map size<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also change the biome and monument filters to hide some maps that you don&#8217;t like.

This is to ensure that servers always have a fresh feel ( server wipe means deleting your map with all the player&#8217;s progression ). However, if you want to wipe your server more than once a month, you can do it manually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Open your server control panel and navigate to the file manager. Open the server\/rust folder and delete any files which end with .map\/.sav\/.db<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure to turn off your server before deleting any files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, you can optionally change your map to make the server feel fresh.

It&#8217;s essential to have this framework installed on your Rust server because even if you don&#8217;t want your server to be heavily modified, you still need some plugins to protect your server against cheaters and other individuals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-installing-umod-on-your-rust-server\">Installing uMod on your Rust server<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Firstly, you need to download the framework itself. Go to the official <a href=\"https:\/\/umod.org\/games\/rust\">uMod.org<\/a> page and navigate to the Rust section. Download the Windows\/Linux version of the framework depending on what your server is running on. Our <a href=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/rust-hosting-server\">XGaming<\/a> Rust servers are running on Linux.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-19.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"523\" src=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-19-1024x523.png\" alt=\"Download rust umod\" class=\"wp-image-830\" title=\"Download rust umod\" srcset=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-19-1024x523.png 1024w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-19-600x307.png 600w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-19-300x153.png 300w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-19-768x393.png 768w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-19-370x189.png 370w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-19-270x138.png 270w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-19-585x300.png 585w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-19-570x291.png 570w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-19-740x378.png 740w, https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/image-19.png 1029w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>download rust umod<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, that you have installed uMod, you need to navigate to your server control panel and then to the file manager.
