Hello, a friend and I are running a dedicated (not on our computers) Rust server and it's not appearing on any server list tabs.
We can connect directly to the server without issue using the IP and port. Our Rust clients and server are both updated to the newest version of Rust.

Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

Have you given it 24-48 hours for Rust's server crawlers to find you and add you to the list?

I would assume so because my buddy I'm running the server with was able to find the server at one point. Now he doesn't see it.
I've never seen it from the beginning.

I want my server to show up on modded section so other players can find it. I am able to get it working how I want it but after I restart my server for maintenance or quick changes it wont show up unless I restart process below. PLEASE HELP!

 

- I delete every file we can delete

- I run the steam update

- I start the server (SHOWS UP ON FAVORITED AND COMMUNITY)

- I stop the server

- I download oxide onto server

- I add my plugins and config back into new oxide folder

- I start server (SHOWS UP ON FAVORITED AND MODDED) *GOOD*

- I restart the server to make a small change in plugins

- I start server (SHOWS UP ONLY ON FAVORITED)

- I tested this same method multiple times with no change

 

What do I do...?

I'm having the same issues. Nobody seems to know what to do.

I believe it may be possible you are jumping the gun and not allowing it enough time after restarting it to show up on modded. Can you verify this is or isn't the case?

Did you set server.secure false? If so, it won't show up on the server list anymore.

We let the server sit for up to 12hr or so after doing this and it still won't show up on modded server list.

I don't see the option "server.secure" in any files. Which makes me assume I didn't change that setting lol

it's in the server config or startup batch file depending on which one you're using. Nevermind. No idea then =(
