Popular Rust Mods
A few popular Oxide/uMod plugins for your Rust server.
Prerequisites
You'll need Oxide/uMod or Carbon installed before any of these will work.
All Oxide/uMod plugins install the same way: download the plugin's .cs file and upload it to oxide/plugins/ using SFTP or the file manager, then either restart your server or run oxide.reload <PluginName> in the console/RCON.
Running Carbon?
Carbon runs the large majority of Oxide plugins unmodified, drop the same .cs files into carbon/plugins/ instead of oxide/plugins/.
Below are a few popular, actively maintained plugins to consider, search for these by name on umod.org to find their download page:
| Plugin | What it does |
|---|---|
| Economics | Adds a virtual currency (economics.balance, etc.) other plugins build on top of. |
| Kits | Lets players redeem pre-made item kits via chat command. |
| Backpacks | Gives players an extra, separate inventory that (optionally) survives death. |
| Clans | Adds clan/team management, with chat and permission integration. |
| Zone Manager | Lets you define zones on the map with their own rules (no-PVP, no-build, etc). |
| Vanish | Lets admins/moderators go invisible for moderation purposes. |
