Howdee Rek, janitor here, I dont play rust anymore but that campfire trick is genius.

I really enjoyed these tips, never thought of placing vending machine first then door, one thing i like to do is place 3 furnaces on a triangle with 2 window walls, on of the windows has a rug covering it, which makes a neat hide out during a raid, the triangle foundation is wood, so you can place stashes under it.

Last couple wipes I've done a 2x2 with all raised triangles around the base except 2 on 1 side. I put twig 1/2 walls on the inside and make sure 1 side (away from TC side) is 1 full height wall. Then put a bag in that honeycomb. Then I put boxes down there and place floors on top. If you break the twig 1/2 wall by bag it breaks 1 floor diagonally from TC and you can get out. If you break both twig the entire floor breaks and anything on it! This works well for hiding good loot below the floor and if you do get raided it'll instantly break their TC they laid and you can get your base back! I figure you're going to get raided but might as well be able to get it back quickly. Put a couple jackhammers down there and you can get thru the soft side wall (since you're inside the base) of the doors they placed! Put some ladders too just in case.

As a new Rust player I'm loving these videos.

Nice to see you implemented the tuna can lamp to hide the box. ;)

[evilmonkeygaming]

Nice video and used the link looking forward to using the software rather then the standard windows video capture software

[kermitthecrog]

That one with the tuna light is awesome

[daemonthenoob]

These are some nice tips.... I like the music in this one

One of these days Reks I'll upload a video of my airlock trap. It works well against curious door campers and it is quite hilarious to see their reactions. I believe you and DirtRider would have a lot of fun running it.

Campfires can pass loot through walls, and a simple 2×1 with low walls makes it so i can wall stack on console easily if i log my compass direction as i lay the tiles

[Kris-Ako]

Love these videos, keep up the good work 🔥😁👌🏻

[theeyeofra]

Thanks. I needed to be reminded of the hidden box in the wall. Keep forgetting to do it.

[trimpsuz]

You can also place tcs, lockers, batteries, etc. behind vending machines and still access them

[Me.Boosta]

Just out of curiosity, do you know if these also apply to console rust? Thay all I have the option to play on and these tips would be a game changer. Love the videos also

I get called a cheater whenever I call out door campers using the campfire trick. Now everyone will know and I won't be a cheater anymore. 😔

[Nickk]

Little extra tip for all ypu newbies. Make a bunker they are rarely raided.

Second tip for people still reading. When honeycombing place your floor frames for anything after honeycomb to make sure you can expand from there. If you find a place you can't place a floor frame. Maybe move before you expant any further.

[tautie]

You can place the door first, open it, and then place the vendy

[estebanflores]
