1 / 3Built interface — Wipe dashboard
Overview
Wipe & Server Manager is a small web panel you run next to your Rust server that turns wipe day into a sequence of buttons instead of a list of things to remember. It holds the wipe schedule with the forced wipe on the first Thursday already marked, shows a countdown that you can also post to Discord, and keeps a map rotation so the next seed or custom map URL is decided before the day arrives.
Tasks run over RCON. A task is a named list of console commands with a delay between them, such as saving the world, kicking players with a message, stopping the server, swapping the map, clearing the blueprint database and starting again. The panel logs each command's response so a failed step is visible. Backups copy the save, oxide/data and oxide/config to a dated folder before any destructive step runs.
Plugin update checks read the version header of every .cs file in oxide/plugins and compare it against the versions you record for your DistroSource plugins, so you know which files to replace before a wipe. Announcements post to a Discord webhook with templates for wipe countdown, wipe started, server back up and the map for this wipe. The post-wipe checklist walks through the checks you set: plugins loaded, kits reset, shop prices, info panel date.
The panel is a Node.js app delivered as source with a config file for your RCON address, paths and webhook. It runs on the same machine as the server or on a VPS that can reach RCON. Nothing is hosted by us. While you are subscribed, the tasks, templates and checklist are revised as Rust changes how wipes and saves behave.
