How to change server tickrate in Rust

Add +server.tickrate 30 to the server's launch options to run 30 simulation ticks per second. Default is 10.

server.tickrate

Sets how many simulation ticks per second the server runs.

server.tickrate <ticks>

Examples

+server.tickrate 10

Default tick rate on the launch line.

Arguments

ticksRequired: Ticks per second.

What it does

Higher tick rates make the server react more often at the cost of CPU. The default in this build is 10; most servers leave it there. Changes are best made on the launch line.

The game's own description: Number of server simulation ticks per second; higher values improve responsiveness but increase CPU usage

Run it on your server

Type it in the server console or send it over RCON; admins can also use the F1 console in game. To keep a setting, run server.writecfg after changing it, or put it on the launch line as +name value.
