Wounded INFORMATION
Helk
I've changed the wounded UI so that it now displays additional information relating to your wounded status. It will now tell you the probability of recovery as well as how many seconds are left until recovery/death.


Remember: Maintaining full water and food will grant you a higher probability of recovery, and a large medkit in your belt will grant 100% chance of recovery.
Chat EMoji
Jarryd Campi
Chat Emoji is a new feature this month that allows you to express yourself in some new ways. You can access the new list of emoji’s via the emoji button on the right of the chat. From there you can search for a specific emoji as well as change the current selected skin tone for all of your emoji’s. You can also type a : into the regular chat box and start typing to get an autocomplete that you can navigate with the arrow keys and Enter.

In addition to the animated emoji’s you can also use the internal item name to create an emoji using the item icon (eg. :wood:).

Server owners can also create their own emoji's for use on their servers, placing 256px png or jpg images in the "serveremoji" folder in their root directory will automatically expose those emoji for use by players on the server. Find more information on the Rust Wiki

Emoji's are not currently compatible with chat in Rust+ although we’re planning on exploring this in the future.

If for any reason you do not like emojis then please find options to disable them within the in-game options:

Burst Module Improvements
Helk
Burst modules have been buffed. While using a weapon with a burst module, The time between each shot in the burst has been reduced, and the overall recoil felt by the user has been decreased. In addition, aim cone has been reduced, resulting in a much more accurate and viable fire mode.
