Oil Rig tracker

The Heavy Scientist event on the oil rigs is one of the highest-value monument timers in a wipe — but the Rust+ map only shows you the Chinook flying in, not the unlock countdown. Rust Pulse watches the Chinook itself and turns it into a clean event stream:

1. Heavy Scientists arrival — "Heavy Scientists got called to the Small Oil Rig at G24." fires the moment the Chinook hovers over the rig.
2. 15-minute countdown — a timer starts; !small / !large mid-event return "X minutes before the Locked Crate at Small Oil Rig (G24) unlocks."
3. Unlock announcement — "Locked Crate at Small Oil Rig at G24 has been unlocked." fires the moment the timer expires.
4. Last-seen idle — when no rig is active, !small / !large return "X since Heavy Scientists last got called to Small Oil Rig."

Why Chinook-hover, not marker label

Some modded servers rename Rust+ markers ("Heavy Crate", "OIL RIG HOT", etc.) which breaks naive label-matching watchers. We detect the Chinook's distance to the rig instead — if a Chinook is within ~550 metres of the Small Oil Rig and that marker is new this tick, it's a Small Oil Rig event. The same logic works regardless of what the server admin has renamed things to.

Crate fallback

If a server proxy strips the Chinook marker but still emits the Crate marker that lands on the rig deck, the watcher falls back to detecting the Crate landing inside the rig footprint. That keeps the tracker working on the small number of servers that hide the helicopter.

Notifications

The arrival, the countdown midpoint, and the unlock are all separate notification toggles in Settings. Most teams want all three in chat and all three on phone push.
