The Wipe, simply known as "Wipe" is a basic gameplay feature in Rust. Wipe refers to a reset in data, and there are various types of Wipes that take place during a Rust game. During these wipes, some or all data is refreshed and deleted, and the game restarts.

Regardless of a server's wipe schedule, a force wipe takes place on the final Thursday of every month as controlled by the Rust administration team. All data is immediately refreshed, meaning the latest a wipe can take place is once 31 days have passed.

Types of Wipe

Type of wipe Change during wipe
Map Wipe All monuments are refreshed (loot). In addition, all data is refreshed except

blueprints which remain untouched.

Blueprint Wipe All data remains untouched however blueprints are refreshed and have to

be obtained again.

Server Wipe (complete wipe) All data is refreshed. This is the most common wipe, and regardless of a

server's settings it always takes place on the last Thursday of the month.
