Keybinds

Set up one-key shortcuts for the server's menus with /binds: one paste in F1 and you are done.

Almost everything on this server opens with a chat command. Type /binds in game and you can open them all with a single key instead.

Set them all at once

  1. Type /binds in chat. The Keybind Catalog opens with a suggested key for each shortcut, all keys Rust leaves free.
  2. Change any key you like: click it and pick another on the keyboard map.
  3. Press Copy all. Click the line it shows, then Ctrl + A and Ctrl + C.
  4. Press F1, paste with Ctrl + V and press Enter.
  5. Press the first key once (I by default). That press sets every other bind, then the key goes back to opening your backpack.

Copy all: one line, then press the first key once.

Pick any key or a Shift or Ctrl combination.

Why the extra key press? Rust's F1 console only takes one bind per line, so the line sets one key whose job is to set all the others.

The shortcuts

These are the suggested keys. To set just one, copy its line into F1.

Shortcuts for perks you have not unlocked yet show as locked in /binds, with the /p perk that unlocks them.

Checking and clearing a key

  • See what a key does: type bind i in F1.
  • Clear a key: bind i clear in F1.
  • A combination like [leftshift+k] works, but Rust also runs the plain key's own action, so prefer a free key.
