Rust Raid Alerts - Get Instant Raid Notifications in Discord

A raid doesn't wait for you to alt-tab and check the game. Place a Rust+ Smart Alarm on your base, pair your server with rustchad, and every trigger posts straight to Discord - with a role ping if you want one - so your team finds out while it's still happening.

How rustchad catches a raid

Smart Alarm triggers

Every alarm you place on doors, walls or your TC room posts to Discord the second it fires - no polling delay to wait out.

Role mentions

Ping your raid team or admins directly instead of hoping someone's watching the channel. Premium unlocks mentioning a specific role.

Event history

Every trigger is logged with a timestamp, so you can see exactly what happened while you were offline or asleep.

Team status as a second signal

A teammate going offline or dying unexpectedly while you're away is often the first sign something's wrong - rustchad tracks that too.

Set it up

  1. 1

    Pair your Rust+ server

    Sign up, connect Discord, and pair through the same in-game Rust+ app flow you already know.

  2. 2

    Place a Smart Alarm and wire it to a trigger

    Put at least one Rust+ Smart Alarm at a chokepoint, external wall or your TC room, and give it a name you'll recognize later. A Smart Alarm only fires when its power input is powered, so wire in a trigger like a Seismic Sensor to have it fire specifically on a raid.

  3. 3

    Choose where alerts go

    Pick the Discord channel - and, on Premium, a role to mention - so the trigger reaches the right people.

FAQ

Does rustchad detect raids without any setup in Rust?
No - raid detection is tied to Rust+ Smart Alarms. Place at least one in your base, wire it to a trigger such as a Seismic Sensor so it fires on an actual event, and once your server is paired, rustchad picks up every trigger automatically.
Will it ping everyone or just my raid team?
Each alarm can be set to mention everyone or post quietly to the channel on its own. Premium adds mentioning a specific Discord role instead.
Does this work while I'm offline or asleep?
Yes - rustchad watches your paired server in the background around the clock, not just while you have Rust or Discord open.
I don't have a Smart Alarm placed yet - what do I need?
The in-game item, placed, and wired to a trigger - a Seismic Sensor is the standard one - so it fires on an actual raid rather than staying on continuously. See our Rust Smart Alarm guide for the full wiring breakdown, then pair your server to start getting alerts.
