Hey Bumfuzzlers! This week we’ve got a bunch of polishing going on, but not entirely tweaks! There’s some cleanup in aisle 9, a new raid alarm feature, server list changes, Discord giveaways, Raidable Base fixes, unlimited fuel fixes, and water base adjustments. Oh, and today’s wipe! Read on for more info!
Raid Alarms
The old Raid Alerts stopped working due to the author taking a permanent vacation from dealing with the issues.
So, someone suggested I check out a new plugin that uses the Rust+ mobile app.
This plugin is supposed to alert you on the Rust+ app about a raid without requiring that you setup the smart alarms. This way it’s a big easier to manage.
Type /raidalarm in game for more info and sign into the Rust+ application! That should be it!
I’ve implemented it on Bumfuzzlertopia and Bumfuzzlernilla to be earned at Level 8 (/loyalty). Let’s see how it works! Please give me some feedback.
Thanks to Invincible for the feedback.
Bumfuzzlertopia Cleanup
Bumfuzzlertopia has a lot of plugins and probably more than you know.
So I went ahead and disabled a bunch that wasn’t being used to improve performance.
- loot scanner
- turret info
- turret lock
- visual cupboard
- old school quarries
- sleeper animal protection
- Rustnet
- automated searchlights
- remote turrets
I’ve also cleaned up the website a bit, groups and permissions, as well as the Loyalty messages to hopefully ensure there’s no misleading information out there.
My guess is you didn’t even know they were there and won’t miss them!
Server List Names
Made some minor changes to the server names in the server list.
Hopefully, the names stand out a little bit more now:
- [US] BUMFUZZLERNILLA – 3x|Super Skins|Raid Shield|…
- [US] BUMFUZZLERTOPIA – 3x|Max5|Kit|TP|Insta|Super Skins…
It’s always hard to choose what to put in the title, but the hope is that players will take notice of it.
If there’s something not in the title that you believe should be, let me know!
Discord Giveaways
For the last several wipes I’ve been running giveaways.
There’s one running right now!
The last couple we’ve had Willow winning the Pirate Booty package and country_Chawbacon winning the Drone Pilot package. Congrats!
With this wipe, you can win Electric Dream (2 weeks), Car Genius (2 weeks) or Raid Shield Charge 12 hours!
Join Discord and get your name on the list.
Raidable Bases
Wood bases are a bit too easy to raid.
There were a few raidable bases made of wood that you could crouch under the foundations. I’ve since changed them to stone.
I believe now there should be no Raidable Bases that spawn in wood. I think with the resources at 3x, it’s rare anyone would build in wood anyway.
Thanks to Kreeperlink for the feedback
Unlimited Fuel
At level 29 (/loyalty) players are supposed to get unlimited fuel with the mini.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t working when you used the /mymini command.
Now it should work!
If you grab yourself the Frequent Flier package you’ll have unlimited fuel at any level, spawn a mini, summon a mini to your location, and even put code locks on your mini and more. Check out the store to support the server! You’ll get the benefits on any Bumfuzzler server.
Thanks to Kreeperlink for the feedback
Water Bases
The Pirate Booty package required a bit of balancing.
To prevent people from building so far out into the water, I’ve lowered the distance from shore from 900m to 700m
Check out the Pirate Booty package in the shop and support the server. You’ll get perks for everything related to the water!
Thanks Kreeperlink for the feedback.
Things to Come
Been crazy busy, but I am quietly working on a few things that will be major!
I’m looking forward to sharing what I’ve been working on.
Stay tuned for a bunch of new stuff coming soon.
Wipe
Tomorrow it’s a mid-month wipe on Bumfuzzlertopia.
The server will wipe between 3 and 4 pm EST and it’ll be a map wipe only. If you want to vote on the map, get yourself over to Discord. I’ll post in Discord when I start the wipe and let everyone know when it’s finished.
Thanks as always for your patronage. Keep having fun out there!
Here’s some of the latest Rust news for ya.
