It can be very frustrating waiting for stacks of items to craft, so speeding this process up can make players on your server a lot happier. Crafting ControllerĪre players on your server complaining about crafting times? With “ Crafting Controller” you can tweak the time it takes to craft items by modifying the default settings for each item. However, you can also create NPC kits and clan kits that have limits, cool down periods and more. I often see starter kits in a lot of worlds that give new players a few items to help them start their adventure. This is a great way to make your server different from other game worlds. With this cool plugin, you can specify a certain group that will be allocated a certain package that can include gear, weapons, medical kits, resources and more. If you want to create starter packs or clan packs for community members you can with the “ Rust Kits” Plugin. The plugin will also allow you to format both admin and group chats. However, with BetterChat you can set predefined messages and separate clan messaging a lot better. The base chat is very standard and limited to very basic commands.

The plugin acts as a chat manager that allows you to customize the chat format within your server.

They all add quality of life improvements to the game and fix issues that should have been addressed in the standard vanilla RUST experience. My Top 5 RUST Server Plugins Listīelow is a list of all the essential plugins that should be added to your server once you have added the Oxide mod. If you haven’t rented a server from a third-party provider and you’d like to know more information on this process check out the “ choosing a RUST server hosting provider” article. Players tend to choose third-party hosting over the local option for this very reason. Local hosting is great for casual vanilla games but the Oxide mod can add a lot of stress on lower spec computers. You can do this by either renting a shared hosting package from a GSP (game server provider) or host it locally on your own PC. Before you can upload oxide you will first need to have your own RUST server set up.
