How to use camera codes
- Get a Computer Station — craft it at a Tier 2 Workbench or buy one at Outpost for 300 scrap.
- Place it in your base and hold E to sit down. The station itself needs no electricity.
- Type an identifier from the list below into the code field. Codes are case-sensitive — enter them exactly as written.
- Press Add. The camera joins your saved list and you can open its live feed any time.

Underwater Labs
Underwater Labs layouts are procedurally generated and so are their camera identifiers — a room name followed by digits unique to your server's map. Sit at a Computer Station inside the lab to read the real codes for the current wipe.

Abandoned Military Base
The Abandoned Military Base generates its codes per map too, following COMPOUND and OUTDOOR patterns with a per-map suffix. Check a Computer Station at the monument to read them.

Frequently asked questions
How do I use CCTV camera codes in Rust?
Sit at a Computer Station (craftable at a Tier 2 Workbench, or 300 scrap at Outpost), type the identifier into the code field exactly as written — codes are case-sensitive — and press Add. The camera stays in the station's saved list.
What are the Large Oil Rig camera codes?
Large Oil Rig has 13 cameras: OILRIG2HELI, OILRIG2DOCK, OILRIG2EXHAUST, OILRIG2L1 through OILRIG2L5 and OILRIG2L6A to OILRIG2L6D. Mind the prefix — the large rig counter-intuitively uses OILRIG2, the small rig OILRIG1.
Can I watch monument cameras from anywhere on the map?
Yes. A Computer Station has unlimited range and needs no electricity, so a single seat in your base can watch both Oil Rigs, Cargo Ship and every wired land monument at once.
Why don't the Underwater Labs codes work on my server?
Lab layouts are procedural, so their camera identifiers are unique to each map — no static list can cover them. Read the real codes from a Computer Station inside the lab, or use the live section on this page when you play on our servers.
Do these codes change with game updates?
The identifiers are baked into the monument prefabs and rarely change — usually only when Facepunch ships a new monument. This page re-checks the list against every game build and flags new or removed cameras automatically.
Verified manually against multiple sources, August 2026 — automatic per-build verification takes over with the next game update.
