Rust Console Edition got a new update recently. Update 1.23 brings some very useful changes and much-needed bug fixes.
If you were clamoring for a feature that would prevent you from accidentally picking things up, you’re in luck. The developers have heard you, which is why you're now required to hold the “pick up” button if there’s something you want to get.
The Rocket Launcher is quite an effective weapon, but its six-second deploy time may force you to explore other options. Fortunately, the deployment time has been reduced to just three seconds.
For bug fixes, some clipping issues have been resolved. For instance, you will no longer clip through the ceiling of the Gas Station monument.
Also, the issue where you could lose the ability to jump when someone dies on top of your head is now fixed.
Update 1.23 Highlights
- Increased the allowed building range for the Supermarket monument
- Players are now able to use gestures in more ways. Like while sitting in a chair for example
- The AI for the bear was slightly adjusted. Players could run in circles around them, without being attacked
