About BarrelEventsPro
BarrelEventsPro – Advanced Automated Barrel Event System
BarrelEventsPro is a powerful and fully configurable barrel event plugin for Rust servers.
It transforms ordinary barrels into dynamic, scheduled, map-wide events that increase player activity, improve loot control, and reduce administrator workload.
Create small surprises for your players.
You can define your own commands to spawn and hide barrels at specific locations, or run your customized barrel presets as events and present them to your players.
During events, hints can be shown to guide players.
Barrels break in a single hit, and rewards are automatically added to the player’s inventory.
All rewards are fully configurable, and you can even change the barrel prefab itself.
This is not just barrel spawning — it is a complete event system.
Admin Control Commands
/barrelevent start – Manually start the event
/barrelevent stop – Stop the current event
/barrelevent status – View the event status and remaining time
/barrelevent next – Check the interval scheduling status
Alternatively, as shown in the examples, you can define your own commands in the configuration file, customize their behavior, and create events simply by typing them in chat.
Examples:
/fuelred · /scrapbarrel · /mixedbarrel
Preconfigured Commands
Fully permission-based
Permission: barreleventspro.use
Automatic Event Scheduling
Choose how and when events start:
Interval Mode – Events start automatically at random intervals
Fixed Time Mode – Events start at specific server times
Combined Mode – Maximum flexibility
Additional options:
Configurable event duration
Automatic event stop and cleanup
Advanced Barrel Spawning
During an active event:
Barrels spawn every X seconds
Random amount per spawn cycle
Active barrel limit (maximum cap)
Smart spawning logic:
Avoids water
Avoids monuments
Avoids players
Respects world edge buffers
Raycast-based ground placement
All spawn locations are safe, clean, and performance-friendly.
Preset & Reward System
Command-Based Presets
Create unlimited barrel presets via the configuration file:
Custom prefab per preset
One-hit break option
Multiple reward items
Optional amount overrides per command
Examples:
/fuelred · /scrapbarrel · /mixedbarrel
Admins (or authorized players) can instantly spawn reward barrels.
Smart Reward Distribution
Rewards are given directly to the player who breaks the barrel
If the inventory is full:
Drop items on the ground (optional)
Or safely remove them
Default barrel contents can be fully stripped to prevent exploits
Grid Hint & Announcement System
Live Map Grid Announcements
Automatic broadcasts when barrels spawn
Configurable announcement intervals
Grid range support (example: H12–J14)
Displays current / maximum barrel count
Fully customizable messages
Example:
Barrels spotted around H13–J15 (8/20)
Perfect for encouraging map exploration.
Automatic Cleanup & Safety
Event barrels are tracked individually
At event end:
Only event barrels are removed
Optional auto-despawn after X minutes
Optional cleanup on plugin unload
No orphaned entities
No memory leaks
