What is Atlas

Atlas is an unofficial interactive map experience for Rust. It uses the same websocket protocol that the official Rust+ Companion app uses to communicate with the Rust game servers.

Features

  • Hackable Crates
  • Cargo Ship
  • Chinook
  • Explosions
  • Vending Machines

• Shows realtime server stats
  • Current player count
  • How long since last wipe
• Send and Receive realtime Team Chat messages
• Search items for sale in Vending Machines across the map
• Supports "Pairing" with Rust Servers from the in game menu
• Supports adding Rust servers manually without using the in game pairing menu
  • Useful if you run your own server and have access to server files
