RUSTPOCKET

R100

A Rust Discord bot with nothing to host

The self-hosted Rust Discord bots are free and they are also a Node server you keep alive forever. This one is already running inside the app on your PC, so there is nothing to deploy.

The R100 instrument for Discord bot, mounted on its plate and running.
Alerts, straight into a channel
A webhook drops pairing, teammate deaths, live events, the patrol heli, cargo and oil rig into your Discord, with flood protection so a busy wipe does not turn the channel into noise.
The full command set, in Discord
Add a bot token and the same thirty-plus commands the in-game bot answers work in a channel: pop, time, events, scan, monument cooldowns, shop stats and the rest. Server admins get the whole surface without alt-tabbing into the game.
Nothing to self-host
It runs inside RustPocket on the machine you already play on, and stops when you stop. That removes the VPS, the rustplusplus checkout and the npm install at 2am when it falls over.
Setup that says what is wrong
The panel shows the bot's live status, whether that is online, wrong token, or missing Discord's Message Content toggle, next to numbered steps for the developer portal. And a half-configured bot does not go silent: it still answers commands that @mention it, and tells you exactly which switch to flip for the rest.
Route every event three ways
Each event can be spoken aloud, pushed to Discord, sent into in-game team chat, or any combination. The clan that lives in Discord and the duo that lives in team chat read the same feed from the same app.
The R104 command reference in RustPocket, listing the chat and voice commands the bot answers, from oil rig status and device control to monument timers, recycling and translation.
The full command set the bot answers, in chat or by voice, with nothing to host.

About Discord bot

Do I have to host the Discord bot myself?

No. That is the whole point. The self-hosted bots need a Node process running 24/7 somewhere; this one runs inside RustPocket on your PC, so there is no server to deploy or keep alive.

Why pay for this when rustplusplus is free?

The free bots are good, and they are also a weekend of setup plus ongoing hosting. If your time is worth more than that, this is already running the moment you open the app, alongside the map, the scan and everything else in the one subscription.

Does everyone in the Discord need to subscribe?

No. One person runs RustPocket and the bot answers the whole server. There is no per-seat cost and no separate Discord licence.
