The RUST Egg Hunt Command & Event
The RUST egg hunt command allows server administrators the ability to manually trigger the Easter egg hunt event. During the Easter holiday and the week following it, the Easter event will run automatically once every in-game day.
This event is enabled and disabled with the server.events
variable. There is no specific variable to control the private event itself.
When the egg hunt event runs, a short alert message will appear on the screen with an audio cue, alerting players of the game. This message allows players a short window of time to position themselves in a more suitable location (outside of player-made bases or monuments, as eggs will not spawn within a certain range.) After the alert message goes away, a new leaderboard panel will display in the top right of the screen. Easter eggs will begin to spawn around players across the server. For 3 minutes, a countdown will show below the “Top Bunnies” leaderboard, signaling the end of the event when it hits 0:00.

Who can enter the RUST egg hunt command
