Sit at a Computer Station and type a monument identifier. The live feed opens. Large Oil Rig uses the OILRIG2 set, including OILRIG2HELI for the pad and OILRIG2DOCK for boats. Small Oil Rig uses the OILRIG1 set. Cargo Ship, Dome, Missile Silo, Ferry Terminal, Outpost, Bandit Camp, Radtown, and Airfield keep the same IDs every wipe. Underwater Labs and Abandoned Military Base print fresh suffixes on each map.
Set up a Computer Station
Craft the station at a Level 2 Workbench from 5 High Quality Metal, 1 Targeting Computer, 1 RF Broadcaster, and 1 RF Receiver. Facepunch's Computer Station wiki lists a 30-second craft at that bench and 15 seconds at Level 3. Research costs 30 Scrap at a Research Table, or 250 Scrap on the Engineering tech tree.
Place the station and press E to sit. The station runs unpowered. In the lower-left field, type an identifier exactly as written, then click Add. Click the saved name to watch that camera. Identifiers are case-sensitive and accept up to 32 characters. A Facepunch commit in 2025 raised the combined bookmark string to 1024 characters.

Procedural codes: Underwater Labs and Abandoned Military Base
Underwater Labs appends a four-digit suffix to a room name. The prefix tells you the module. The digits change with the seed.
| Prefix | Room |
|---|---|
AUXPOWER | Auxiliary power |
BRIG | Brig |
CANTINA | Cantina |
CAPTAINQUARTER | Captain's quarters |
CLASSIFIED | Classified room |
CREWQUARTERS | Crew quarters |
HALLWAY | Hallway |
INFIRMARY | Infirmary |
LAB | Lab |
LOCKERROOM | Locker room |
OPERATIONS | Operations |
SECURITYHALL | Security hall |
TECHCABINET | Tech cabinet |
Swim to the lab and sit at the Computer Station inside a security room that needs a card. That screen lists the full IDs for the current wipe. Cameras on the walls also print the wipe's full IDs.
Abandoned Military Base uses COMPOUND and OUTDOOR plus a per-map suffix. The communications tent holds a Computer Station that prints those strings for the wipe.
Your own cameras, drones, and Rust+
Deploy a CCTV Camera, power it with 3 rW, then hold E with a hammer equipped and choose Set Identifier. Facepunch allows 32 characters. Anyone who knows that string can add it at a station. A PTZ camera appears on the Level 2 tech tree. It mounts on a ceiling and pans from the station.
Drones fly from a Computer Station near the pad. Facepunch's Eye in the Sky notes the radio range is short. Park the station close to where you launch.
Rust+ shows player-owned cameras you already added on a paired PC server. Monument IDs stay on the in-game station. The app renders your feeds when your character is offline. Admins tune range with the camerarenderer convars.
Troubleshooting
The screen reads No Signal. Retype the ID in the same capitals as the table. OILRIG2HELI connects. A destroyed camera produces the same message.
Weak Signal means the fixture took damage. The feed returns after its cooldown. Audio keeps coming through.
The list stays empty after you click Add. A lowercase letter or a trailing space will do that. Clear the field and paste the code from the table.
AUXPOWER on its own stays dark. You need the four digits from that wipe's in-lab station.
Rust+ shows a black monument feed. Pair your own base cameras. Official static monument IDs stay in the in-game station.
FAQ
Does the Computer Station need electricity? The station itself runs as soon as you place it. Cameras you deploy draw 3 rW.
Do monument codes change on force wipe? The static table stays put on vanilla procedural maps. Labs and Abandoned Military Base roll new suffixes with the seed.
Can I watch oil rig from my phone? Rust+ covers player-owned cameras on a paired PC server. Monument IDs stay on the Computer Station.
How do I hide a base camera name? Pick a long private string, then keep that station inside cupboard privilege.
The PC box those Computer Stations live on is Rust server hosting. Rust common issues covers rooms that drop out of the browser after a restart.
