Rust buildings are typically maintained and managed by a tool cupboard, which expends resources to repair buildings as they decay or are attacked. This can result in many resources being used if players don't play as frequently; in that case, reducing the decay rate can be very beneficial so that fewer materials are used. Alternatively, on high-population servers where members come and often go, setting a building decay high may make room for new members to move in.
1. Log in to the BisectHosting Starbase panel.
2. Stop the server.
3. Go to the Startup tab.
4. From the Additional Arguments field, enter the following: +decay.scale "value"
Note: A value of
"2"would make buildings decay twice as fast, while a value of"0.5"would cut the speed in half. Enter"0"to disable decay entirely.
5. Start the server.
