Run it without commands

Rust Console admin tools without console commands

Typing commands into a console on your phone is nobody’s idea of fun. Surge gives you and your admins a website with buttons for the things you do every day.

See who’s online, kick or ban someone, call in a patrol heli for an event, clear junk piles before they push up your entity count, and add staff without handing out your console password. When you do need a command, there’s a live console right in the dashboard.

Start free with Discord Free, with more on Premium

What you get

Player List

Online, offline and banned players with search. Kick, ban and unban from one menu.

Shortcuts

Call in a patrol helicopter, Chinook, airdrop or cargo ship, switch PvP and PvB on or off, kill all scientists and more.

A live console

Watch chat, kills and joins as they happen and run any command, with autocomplete and saved commands your team shares.

Nuke Building

Find every building a player owns, see it on the map and delete one or all of them.

Server health

Entity count, uptime, FPS and memory with a rolling one-hour chart.

Management Team

Add admins by their linked name. They never see your console details.

How to set it up

  1. Connect your server with its IP, console port and console password.

  2. Open the server from your Servers page.

  3. Use the Management section for day to day jobs.

New to Surge? The setup guide covers connecting your server first.

Every option is explained in the documentation: Player List guide.

Admin Tools questions

Do my admins need my console password?

No. Add them to your Management Team or give them your Discord admin role. They can’t see or change the connection details.

Can I still run console commands?

Yes. Server Settings > Console is a live RCON console in the dashboard. It suggests commands as you type and keeps your saved commands one click away.

Does it work on a phone?

Yes. The whole dashboard works on mobile, and you can search any setting with the search button.

Can I manage more than one server?

Yes. Free covers 1 server and Premium covers up to 10 on one account.
