Rust recently switched to use RCON over Websockets in a recent update. This can be accessed here: http://facepunch.github.io/webrcon/#/home

Code: Select all

+rcon.web 0
Add that to your command line. Unfortunately the incompetents that are making Rust have decided in their infinite wisdom to force people to use an unsecure web address instead. The above command will work for you, but is eventually going to be removed entirely.

We have finished implementing basic websockets rcon support in our control panel -- it now works like it did before there. If you switched off WebSockets rcon manually because the control panel didn't work right, I recommend switching it back now.

In the near future, we plan to extend this support to sending "save" to the server automatically before it is shut down. That will work around a current design flaw in the game (that it doesn't automatically save when the server is closed, meaning that progress since the last auto-save is lost).
