Hello,
I played a lot on the old Rust, and now that the new one seems to be running pretty well, I'm trying to get back to it.
However, I'm confused as to how you're supposed to find a real life buddy in a procedural map.
We tried going in the same terrain type (desert, grassland, snow) and go with landmarks, to no avail. We're thinking about going on the boundary between 2 terrain types (grassland and desert for example), keep the desert left, the grassland right, and walking to the ocean. However, this would be super long.
What I'm wondering is: how many naked spawn points is there? If one of us just kills himself repeatedly, will he come to spawn near the other guy? Is there any other easy way?
I know I can go play on a modded server, but I'd like to keep things vanilla if possible.
Share your buddy-finding tips pls!
Easy. The main "landmarks" are Lighthouses. Not sure how many there are per seed, but I assume it can be anywhere from 2 to 4. Find a Lighthouse and build next to it.
You may now even use Rad Towns as landmarks as well.
Use the Sun. Sun rises in the East,right? Put the Sun on your right shoulder and you would be facing North.
When the sun is right above, use (as stated) landmarks
