🗺️ How to Upload and Set Up Custom Maps in Pterodactyl for Your Rust Server

Do you want to use a custom map on your Rust server?
Here’s a simple guide to upload your map and set it up correctly using Pterodactyl.

Do not upload your maps to Discord or Dropbox:

  • Discord: The links generated expire after a short time.
    If you use these links on your server, the map will stop working and players won’t be able to join.
  • Dropbox: Has bandwidth and access limitations.
    Maps may fail or become unavailable if the limit is exceeded.

To avoid problems, ServersGame offers an exclusive website to upload your maps:

https://mapas.serversgame.es/

How does it work?

  1. Go to the website:
    Visit https://mapas.serversgame.es/ in your browser.

  2. Log in with Steam:
    Click the Steam button and log in with your account.
    This is safe and only used to identify you as the map owner.

  3. Upload your map file:
    Select the .map file you want to use and upload it.

  4. Get your map URL:
    After uploading, the website will give you a unique URL for your map.
    This URL is permanent and optimized for Rust servers.

🛠️ Set Up the Map in Pterodactyl

  1. Log in to your Rust server’s Pterodactyl panel.
  2. Go to the Variables or Startup Configuration section.
  3. Find the field called CUSTOM_MAP_URL or similar.
  4. Paste the URL provided by the ServersGame map website.
  5. Save changes and restart your server.
