Tarp

The Tarp in Rust is an essential resource item commonly used in crafting various base components. Players use Tarps specifically to create Planter Boxes, which are utilized for growing crops, and Water Catchers, key for collecting and storing fresh water. Tarps can also be valuable for those looking to stock up on cloth, as they can be recycled to yield 50 cloth pieces each, making them an excellent resource for crafting other cloth-based items or for base upgrades.

Due to their abundance, Tarps can be found frequently while scavenging. Players looking to optimize their base's self-sufficiency will find Tarps incredibly useful, both for advancing their agricultural capabilities with Planter Boxes and for sustaining water supplies with Water Catchers. It is advisable to keep a stock of Tarps or the obtained cloth for future crafting needs, repairs, or unexpected situations that may arise during gameplay.
