UFO Invasion

Something is watching from above—and it’s armed.

Bring an alien threat to your Rust server with a spinning UFO that patrols the skies, hunts players, and fights back with explosive lasers, mortar runs, and anti-air attacks.

Take it down and watch it crash into the world before claiming the wreckage and rewards.

A Fight Above the Battlefield

• Explosive laser attacks: A visible laser warns players before an explosion strikes its impact point.
• Mortar flybys: Strafing runs bombard the battlefield with configurable mortar volleys.
• Anti-air combat: Occupied player helicopters can become targets.
• Defensive flares: The UFO can deploy countermeasures against incoming homing missiles.
• Retaliation: Attackers can be remembered and pursued.
• Flight audio: A looping flight sound accompanies the invasion.

Bring It Down

Defeating the UFO sends it into a crashing descent, ending in an explosion when it strikes the ground or an obstacle.

Configure the death crates and leave harvestable scrap wreckage behind for players to salvage.

Keep Players Informed

• Named map marker with a configurable colored radius.
• Optional boss health bar for players who damage the UFO.
• Configurable health bar positioning.
