Oil rigs and the excavator through a Smart Alarm

How it works

The small and large oil rigs and the excavator broadcast on their own frequency. An RF Receiver picks it up and powers a Smart Alarm, and Rust++ sends an event notification.

EventFrequencyWhen it broadcasts
Small oil rig4765for a minute from the start of the crate unlock
Large oil rig4768for a minute from the start of the crate unlock
Excavator4777while the engine runs

The in-game circuit

  1. RF ReceiverPlace an RF Receiver, power it and set the event frequency.
  2. Smart AlarmWire the receiver output to the Smart Alarm input and pair the alarm with Rust++.
  3. What it signalsPick the event in the “New connection” window or in the alarm settings.

Each event needs its own circuit and its own alarm.

What you see in Rust++

  • a “Small oil rig: crate unlocks in 15 minutes” notification, and “crate unlocked” 15 minutes later;
  • in “Notifications”, the “Events” tab: what is happening now, time to the crate, the event feed;
  • a new crate on an oil rig appears no later than 65 minutes after the unlock, if nobody is on it;
  • the excavator: how long it has been running and how much Diesel Fuel it burned — one barrel per 2 minutes;
  • “Excavator stopped” when its signal goes off — it ran out of Diesel Fuel or was switched off;
  • your own text for the start of an event — the “Notification text” field of the alarm, empty means the default text;
  • the !events command in team chat.
