Your base gets raided while you're asleep โ€” by the time you check your phone, it's already gone. Raid Alarm turns Rust raid alerts into real phone calls that cut through sleep, silence, and "I didn't see my phone." YOUR WHOLE TEAM GETS THE CALL Solo, duo, trio, clan, or zerg โ€” it doesn't matter. Pair your server once and every teammate's phone rings the second your base takes damage. No one misses a raid because they were AFK on Discord. SMART RAID GUARD โ€” ONLY THE CALLS THAT MATTER Random gunfire nearby shouldn't wake your whole team. Raid Guard filters the noise and only rings you for real threats, so you trust every call instead of muting the app after day one. ONE SWITCH, ENTIRE BASE โ€” SMART AUTOMATION Link every turret, trap, and light to a single smart switch โ€” one tap arms your whole base. Set it to run on in-game time: defenses auto-arm at nightfall (20:00), stand down at sunrise (07:00) โ€” even while you're offline or asleep. SERVER SEARCH & FAVORITES Find and pair your active Rust server in seconds with secure Steam login โ€” no passwords stored. Save favorites and jump between servers instantly. RAID CALCULATOR Know exactly how much sulfur, how many rockets or C4 a base costs to crack โ€” before you commit a single resource, offense or defense. WIPE COUNTDOWN Live countdown to the next force wipe, so you're never caught off guard on a fresh map. Note: Alarm delivery depends on your phone's sound settings (Do Not Disturb silences calls) and Rust server/Facepunch infrastructure โ€” any delay originates from the game server, not the app. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: This is an UNOFFICIAL third-party application.

About

Send It Fire Support

Features
Read full description

Send It is a fast, no-nonsense fire support calculator for mortar and artillery crews playing WARDOGS. Enter your gun position and the target your spotter calls in, straight from the map's X/Y coordinates. Send It gives you the compass bearing and range instantly, and tells you in big letters whether the shot is on: SEND IT when the target is inside the weapon's envelope, HOLD FIRE with the exact shortfall when it is too close or out of range. WHAT IT DOES โ€ข L81 mortar and SPH-2 artillery, each with its own minimum and maximum range โ€ข Bearing to a tenth of a degree, with the compass point, and range in metres โ€ข Paste a pair your squadmate sends ("82.4, 61.2") into one box and it fills both โ€ข Recent targets: every target you enter is saved, with live bearing and range against your gun. Tap to reuse, long-press to name it โ€ข Swap gun and target with one tap for counter-battery work โ€ข Remembers your last weapon and map scale โ€ข Works offline. Nothing you type ever leaves your phone FREE, WITH ONE SMALL BANNER The app is free. A single small banner sits at the bottom of the screen and never interrupts you โ€” no full-screen ads, no video. "Buy the dev a coffee" removes it for good with one purchase. UNOFFICIAL COMPANION Send It is independent and fan-made. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Bulkhead or Team17. WARDOGS is a trademark of its respective owner. Range limits reflect the game as tested and may change with updates; if yours differ, tell us via the support page and we'll update the app.
