Paper Map

The Paper Map is one of the first things you should consider crafting when joining a new world. Costing only 5 wood it displays the entire island you have to explore. To open the map, you must place it in your hotbar and then hold the G key on your keyboard. On this map you will see your marker and direction you are facing, the island's topography, biomes, points of interest, and even vending machine locations/names which can help new players substantially. This item is no longer available to craft.

Crafting

Paper Map cannot be crafted — it drops as loot, comes from a research blueprint, or is found at monuments.

Recycling

Rust has two recycler types. Monument recyclers are faster and yield 60%, but you can be attacked. Safe-zone recyclers in Outpost and Bandit yield 40% and take longer, but turrets protect you.

Paper Map cannot be recycled.
