With the purchase of the NFT, you’ll receive a Steam account that comes pre-loaded with Rust. If you already have a Steam account with Rust purchased, you can connect to the server.
If you haven’t played Rust, try reading this.

Since our custom server is still early in development, you’ll be able to find an area to quietly build up your own base, research blueprints, and generally leveling up with better weapons and gear.
Once you have a basic understanding of the gameplay, you can connect to our server.
Open Rust, press F1 to open the console, and type this:
client.connect 192.155.88.234:28015
As an exercise, try chopping some wood and gathering stone from stone nodes. You can then craft a building plan and hammer to start building your first base.
Build your base by constructing a Tool Cupboard (or TC), add foundations and walls with the building plan, and a door with a lock. Upgrade your twig to wood or stone for extra durability. Finally, place a sleeping bag so you can respawn inside your base if you die. There is a 3 minute timer on your sleeping bag to prevent you from respawning too quickly.
Make sure your TC is filled with enough wood and stone so that your base doesn’t decay. The TC will gradually deplete the supplies you place inside of it, so remember to come back and keep it filled.
In order to access the in-game economy, you’ll need to go to The Outpost. You can find The Outpost on your map (press g). Once you’re at The Outpost, find the NPC wearing heavy armor. Walk up to the NPC and press “e” to access the exchange. There’s a screenshot below of what the NPC looks like.
