Cannon
The Cannon is a stationary accessory for the Player-Made Boat Building System in RUST, deployable via the F1 Console under the items section. Apart from this system, the cannon has no other active purpose and cannot, at this time, be used on preexisting vessels such as Tugboats. They do, however, pop up in various spots in the Deep Sea area, such as on islands.
As one might surmise, the Cannon does as its name implies; when deployed off the side of a customizable modular boat, it may be mounted, targeted, and fired at anything one wishes. When firing the cannon, players can accidentally hit the ship it is attached to, and cause considerable damage to the vessel and crew.
This deployable may only be applied to a modular boat during the editing phase, or while docked within a Boat Building Station with editing enabled.
Interactions with this device are similar to those with siege weapons one might find on land.
Controls:
- Hold W, A, S, D, or use mouse movements to aim and direct the attack
- W up
- A left
- S right
- D down
- Once aimed, hold R to prime
- Press the Left Mouse Button to fire
The cannon exclusively fires Cannonballs.
