Fields

Field	Type	Description
type	string	Exactly 'Fishing'
title	string	Short, human-readable name. Must not be empty.
description	string	A blurb of 1 to 3 sentences. May be empty if the title is self-explanatory.
amountRequired	integer (≥ 1)	How many of the target fish the player must catch.
cooldown	object | null	Optional pacing limit on how fast progress adds up: at most maxAmount units of progress count in any sliding window of windowSeconds. Absent means progress adds up freely. While the window's budget is used up, further progress is ignored and the player sees a countdown to the next available moment.
burst	object | null	Optional clustering requirement: actions only count when they arrive clustered, at least amount units within one trailing window of windowSeconds forming one burst. When present, amountRequired counts completed bursts instead of raw actions. Actions that age out of the window without completing a burst never count. Absent means no clustering.
conditions	map	Optional conditions that restrict when progress counts. Progress is recorded only when the objective's main requirement and all of these conditions are met. Use an empty map for none.
hideDetails	boolean	When true, hides this objective's in-game condition strip and details popup, so the description is the only explanation players get. Title, description and progress still show. Absent means false.
fish	string[]	Rust item shortNames (e.g. fish.anchovy, fish.herring, fish.sardine).
bait	string[]	Items usable as fishing bait (e.g. worm, grub, fish.minnows, bearmeat, chicken.raw).

Notes

• Progress increments by one each time a listed fish is caught.
• The bait list gates how the fish is caught:
  • Non-empty: the bait currently loaded in the rod must be one of the listed baits, or the catch doesn’t count.
  • Empty: any bait qualifies.
