Setup Guide

Go to your server provider panel → Settings → RCON. Enable it and note down the IP address, port, and password.

You will need: Host (e.g. 123.456.78.9), Port (e.g. 28016), and the RCON password you set.

You will be redirected to Discord's authorization page.

You must have the "Manage Server" permission on that server.

Thanatos needs: Manage Channels, Manage Roles, Send Messages, Embed Links, Read Message History. These are required to auto-create channels and post live feeds.

A modal will appear asking for your in-game server name (e.g. "Annunitum" or "My Rust Server"). This name will appear in kill feed messages and announcements.

🚀 GET STARTED — 📌 server-guide (read-only onboarding), 🛡️ mod-log (admin-only audit trail)

⚔️ EVENTS & FEEDS — ⚔️ kill-feed (live combat tracking), 📡 global-events (events: cargo, bradley, heli…)

🛟 SUPPORT & HELP — 🙋 player-support (ticket panel for players), 🛟 thanatos-support (admin ticket panel → Thanatos Support Guild)

The kill feed channel is automatically linked to the bot during setup — no additional command needed.

Economy (shop, bank, casino), Clans, Community, Notifications and more — each channel is one click away.

No extra command needed. The 🎫 Open a Ticket button is always visible in the channel — just click it whenever something goes wrong.

Tell us which command broke, what you expected, and what happened instead. The more detail you give, the faster we fix it. All information stays private between you and the Thanatos team.

The Thanatos team reviews every single ticket. We respond as fast as possible — typically within 24 hours — and we keep the ticket open until the problem is fully resolved. No deadline, no auto-close.

Configuration issues, broken commands, RCON problems, economy bugs, events not firing — whatever it is, we dig into it and fix it with you. You are never left without a response.

Players click the button, pick a category (Bug / Economy / Report / Ban Appeal / General), describe their issue, and a private ticket channel is created — visible only to the player and your staff team.

An interactive panel opens. Pick a category from the dropdown: Game Feeds, Economy, Content, Community, Moderation, Notifications, or Clan.

When you click Create, the bot creates the channel with the correct name, category, topic, and permissions — no manual configuration needed.

Each economy channel gets a live guide posted automatically (shop catalogue, bank commands, casino rules).

Raid alerts and activity feed are read-only. Arena and bounties allow player interactions.

Use the "Clan" group in /channel_hub to create the entire clan domain in one shot.

The welcome channel will automatically post join and leave cards when players enter or leave the server.

A form will appear where you enter your RCON details.

Host: your server IP (e.g. 123.456.78.9)

Port: typically 28016 for Rust Console Edition

Password: the RCON password set in your server panel

You will see ✅ Connected if successful. If not, double-check that RCON is enabled in your server settings and that the firewall allows the RCON port.

This command sends a test query to RCON and confirms the kill feed pipeline is live.

The bot sends a confirmation message in the channel as soon as setup completes.

This command sends a test query to RCON and confirms the kill feed pipeline is active. You will see a health report embed.

tick_delay — how often kills are fetched (default 3s)

pvp_only_mode — show only player-vs-player kills (hide NPC kills)

chat_command_mode — how the bot posts in-game: auto / prefer global.say / say only

Shows total kills processed, queue size, and pipeline health.

The gamertag must match their in-game name. It does not have to be case-perfect — the bot auto-corrects the casing the first time the player appears in a kill or death event on the server.

Kill rewards (100 T-CRED per PvP kill) are also credited automatically once linked.

After saving, they can teleport back at any time using the quick-chat phrase "we need beds". The bot retrieves their live position via RCON — no manual coordinate entry required.

From here you can start Blood Rush (Scientist Hunt), Iron Descent (Crate Drops), Abyssal Protocol (Underwater Labs), Arena 1v1, and manage the automatic event rotation.

Set the 9 race coordinates with /novarace set_point (requires being in-game). Choose a registration channel with /novarace set_channel, enable with /novarace set_enabled True, then open registrations with /novarace start.

Set custom T-CRED amounts for PVP kills (/kill_rewards set_pvp) and scientist kills (/kill_rewards set_scientist). Defaults are 100 and 25 respectively.

Covers RCON console, economy season management, VIP settings, shop prices, channel refresh, and clan guide setup — all in one interactive panel.

Players vote to skip the night when the server reaches in-game 18:00. Set the channel first with /nightvote setchannel.

Clan creation costs 1,000 T-CRED. Players can join with /clan_join after receiving an invite.

The menu has four sections: 💣 Calculator (explosive cost breakdown), 🛡️ Protection (purchase a timed zone via RCON), 📊 Activity (real-time explosive detection feed), and 🔔 Base Alert (personal DM notification).

The player must be in-game at their base. The bot captures their live position via RCON — no manual coordinate entry. They choose a duration (12h / 24h / 48h). When explosives are detected nearby and the suspected attacker is within the configured radius, the player receives a Discord DM with the grid reference and distance.

Use the "🔔 Base Alert" button to enable/disable the feature. Use "💰 Alert Prices" to set T-CRED prices per duration (set to 0 for free) and the detection radius (default 150m, range 50–500m).

The raid detection engine parses RCON logs for C4, Rockets, Satchels and Grenades. When activity reaches a severity threshold it posts a raid embed in the raid-alerts channel. Use /raidtest to simulate an alert and verify the setup.
