Pumpkin
RUST Pumpkins are an edible item most commonly found on the banks of rivers, growing naturally and available to be picked.
With the introduction of the Farming System, two types of pumpkins are available for picking, distinguished by a subtle difference. Natural pumpkins will not have genetic information detailed when a player approaches, whereas planted pumpkins will.
When consumed, pumpkins will restore 80 calories and 30 hydration points, as well as heal the player a substantial amount. When eaten, both natural and planted pumpkins will yield Pumpkin Seeds. Planted pumpkins also have the option, once they reach a particular growth stage, to be replicated via Pumpkin Plant Clones.
Pumpkins are also used in a few different crafting recipes, and make for an excellent addition to your hotbar for healing purposes.
