Once a month, the Oxide developers update their product. Sometimes, Rust also pushes an update for servers, which also requires Oxide to be updated again outside of their regular update schedule. If you ever experience issues while connecting to your server, or you suddenly cannot see your server on the server list, the first thing to try before anything else is performing these updates, if the issues were not present before.
