Peak: the most players in the first 48 hours. Crowd: whether every day of the wipe kept at least half that peak, or the day it fell below. A new world less than six hours after a wipe is a restart, not a wipe of its own.

What configuration does SoftNet use?
No gather rate appears in the name of SoftNet. Up to 8 players per group, which is the game's default. The server runs survival, gather, build, raid: the standard game. Fighting and raiding between players is allowed. The server browser lists it under Community, as a community server. Its own label is vanilla: no altered rates, kits or rules: this is the game exactly as Facepunch ships it. VAC is on, Valve's anti-cheat.
What is the map on SoftNet?
A procedural map of size 4,500 is what SoftNet runs, generated by the game with seed 367222608. The map is identical for the same size and seed, so it can be viewed on RustMaps from this page.
