The four floating cities belong to the Deep Sea and are not map monuments. A server shows one of them at a time unless its owner changes that.

How a repair bench works

  • Repairing costs part of the recipe, in proportion to the damage: 20% of it for a fully broken item, 10% for a half broken one. Components in the recipe are never charged.
  • Each repair takes up to 20% off the item's maximum condition, so it holds a little less after every repair.

The one you build yourself

The version you craft and place is the Repair Bench, which has 200 health against 100 for the monument one.

Built in, not the one you place

How the monument Repair Bench works in Rust

On procedural Rust server maps, Repair Bench (100 structural rating) appears as 16 permanent world fixtures distributed across 10 land or coastal compounds plus 4 offshore floating settlements (4 waterborne units). Unlike player-built workshop furniture placed inside a private base, these public monument installations remain bolted to the map terrain across the entire wipe and can be operated by any visiting survivor without Tool Cupboard authorization.

Repair Bench monument locations, grid stages and efficiency

Monument placement tables, fuel or material conversion rates, and base-deployable comparisons above document where Repair Bench stands on every procedural map seed and how its public utility mechanics compare against player-crafted stations.

  • Map placement density (16 fixtures): Bolted into 10 land or coastal radtown layouts with 4 extra placements across 4 offshore floating settlements on every procedural seed.
  • Structural hitpoints and pickup rules: Carries a fixed 100 hitpoint pool and remains permanently anchored to the monument floor without Hammer pickup.
  • Electrical grid and fuel requirements: Self-contained monument utility that operates immediately without slotting Heavy Fuses at Power Plant.
  • Base crafting and deployable comparison: Pairs with a player-craftable workbench recipe that survivors can build and place inside a Tool Cupboard base.
  • Public access and PvP considerations: Open to all players without building privilege, making surrounding sightlines, safe-zone turrets, and cycle timers critical during loot runs.
