Deep Sea Options is a single config control plugin for Rust’s new Deep Sea feature. It lets server owners fully control when Deep Sea opens, what spawns inside it, what vehicles can enter, and how access rules are enforced. You can also configure if players can build inside deep sea. Building Control Enforce building allowed / blocked inside Deep Sea * Limit how many foundations a player can build in Deep Sea * Buildings persist restart, as long as the deep sea isnt being closed. Deep Sea Behavior Control Configure defaults: Whether the deep sea should always remain open, be on timers, or disabled Control all phase timers GameTip messages to announce deep sea openinig/closing Deep Sea Content Control Configure procedural spawns: Island counts Ghost Ships counts RHIB counts Control: count spacing radius minimum distance between spawns distance from Deep Sea edges Settings are grouped and explained in the config Loot spawn Configurable respawn option for crates/ore/npc Access & Teleport Rules Control: Allow all vehicles (including planes and helis) or only an allow-listed set players can enter without a boat flying (noclip/admin) players can bypass checks NPC passengers are allowed on vehicles Prevent or allow “vehicle stacking” (boats/helis on deck) Chat Commands /deepsea status Shows current Deep Sea state /deepsea open Opens deep sea if not alrady open /deepsea close Closes current Deep Sea Console Commands dso open - to open the deepsea through the plugin dso close - to close the deepsea through the plugin dso forceclose - to force close the deepsea in case you need it closed but 'AlwaysOpen' is reopening it Note if you make changes to some config values (such as the procedural spawns, you will need to close the deep sea and reopen.) Config options: === GENERAL CONTROLS === Control - Schedule If ON: Plugin controls when Deep Sea opens/closes and how long it stays open. Control - Content If ON: Plugin controls how many islands, ghost ships, and scientist boats spawn and how they are placed. Control - Travel Rules If ON: Plugin controls who/what is allowed to use Deep Sea portals (vehicles, NPCs, players without vehicle, etc). Control - Building If ON: Plugin controls whether players can build while inside Deep Sea. Force Apply On Reload If ON: When plugin reloads, it forces Deep Sea to close and reopen so spawn changes apply immediately. If OFF: Changes apply next time Deep Sea opens normally. === SCHEDULE SETTINGS === Mode Vanilla = Normal Rust Deep Sea cycle. AlwaysOpen = Deep Sea never closes. Disabled = Deep Sea never opens. (plugin manually resests the reopen timer. recommend using the other disable option below if just want it off always) Open Time Seconds How long Deep Sea stays open before closing (Vanilla mode). Cooldown Seconds How long Deep Sea stays closed before opening again (Vanilla mode). Final Phase Seconds End-of-cycle phase used for weather / atmosphere effects. Radiation Warning Phase Seconds When time left is below this, new entry is normally blocked. AlwaysOpen - Keep Time Left Around Seconds In AlwaysOpen mode, Deep Sea time is kept around this value. AlwaysOpen - Refill When Below Seconds If time left drops below this, it refills back up to the target above. Disabled - Push Next Opening To Seconds In Disabled mode, pushes next open time far into the future. Set DeepSea Enabled Flag If ON, plugin forces the core deepsea enabled/disabled flag (may need restart). DeepSea Enabled Only used if above is ON. Turns Deep Sea system on/off at engine level. === CONTENT SPAWNING === (These control placement spacing) Islands / Ghost Ships / RHIB Groups all use same logic: Count How many spawn each time Deep Sea opens. Spacing Size General spacing radius. Bigger = more spread out. Edge Buffer How far from the outer Deep Sea border spawns must stay. Bigger = more toward the center. Minimum Spacing Hard minimum distance between spawns. Overrides spacing size if larger. === RESPAWN (CRATES / NPCs / HACKABLES) === Enable Respawn System If ON: Plugin respawns eligible Deep Sea crates, ores, and NPCs. Check Interval Minutes Time to respawn. Min Distance From Players To Allow Respawn Entities will only respawn if no players are within this distance. Respawn Hackable Crates Via Ghostship If ON: Hackable crates respawn on ghost ships. Hackable Crates Count Number of hackable crates that can spawn. === TRAVEL RULES === Allow Any Vehicle If ON: Any vehicle can use portal. Allowed Vehicle Prefabs If NOT allowing all vehicles, only these are allowed. Require Boat Type Only If ON: Even allowed vehicles must be boats. Allow Players Without Vehicle If ON: Players can teleport without standing on a vehicle. Allow Noclip Players If ON: Flying/admin players bypass vehicle checks. Allow NPC Passengers If OFF: Vehicles with NPC passengers cannot teleport. Allow NPC Player Teleport If ON: NPC player entities themselves can teleport. Allow Entry During Radiation Warning Phase If ON: Players can enter even when Deep Sea is about to close. Ignore Extra Vehicle Onboard Check If ON: Should allow things like helicopters sitting on boats. Log Entry/Exit If ON: Logs allow/deny decisions for debugging. === BUILDING === Allow Building In Deep Sea If OFF: Players cannot build inside Deep Sea. If ON: Building is allowed. DeepSea - Limit Foundations If ON: Limits how many foundations each player can place inside Deep Sea only. DeepSea - Max Foundations Per Player Maximum number of foundations a player can place inside Deep Sea. DeepSea - GameTip: Show remaining on successful place If ON: When a player places a foundation in Deep Sea, shows how many foundations they can still place. DeepSea - GameTip: Show message when denied If ON: When a player hits the Deep Sea foundation limit, shows a GameTip === NOTIFICATIONS === GameTip - Deep Sea Opening If ON: Shows a GameTip when Deep Sea starts opening. GameTip - Deep Sea Opened If ON: Shows a GameTip when Deep Sea is fully open. GameTip - Deep Sea Closing If ON: Shows a GameTip when Deep Sea starts closing. GameTip - Deep Sea Closed If ON: Shows a GameTip when Deep Sea is fully closed.

ReputationRewards is built to encourage positive community behaviors by adding an in-game reputation system to your Rust server with a clean 3-column UI, built-in reward shop, and rank progression. Players can reward each other for being Helpful, Friendly, or Skilled, earning spendable reputation points that can be redeemed instantly for configured items. As players gain reputation, they climb ranks and can trigger configurable server commands on rank-up for additional rewards or other triggers (kits, mail, permissions, VIP perks, etc.). Key features In-game UI One command opens a polished reputation interface. Three-column layout: Your Reputation (rep totals, rank, progress bar, spendable points) Players List (searchable, sorted by total rep) Built in Rewards Shop Three reputation categories Helpful Friendly Skilled These can easily be renamed to something else via the Lang files. Anti-abuse limits (configurable) Per-target cooldown: limit how often someone can rep the same player. Total giving limit per window: cap how many reps a player can give during a configurable time window (default 24h). Spendable reputation points Configurable points awarded to: The target (for receiving rep) The giver (for giving rep) Points are spent in the built in reward shop. Built-in reward shop Configure any Rust item shortname + amount + optional skin + optional custom display name. Players select quantity and see the total cost before purchase. Rank system with automatic rewards Define unlimited ranks with a required total reputation threshold. Run server commands on rank-up (supports placeholders like %steamid%). Compatible with all plugins that can trigger a console command against a player, such as my Mail System Visual feedback FX plays when rep is received. FX plays on rank-up to make progression feel rewarding. Integrations BetterChat: If you wish to display player's reputation rank next to their chat name ImageLibrary (recommended): for image loading reliability. Configuration highlights Set cooldown time per target player Set total give limit window (seconds) + max reps per window Configure how many spendable points are earned per rep (giver and target) Configure wipe behavior on new save (rep/rank and/or spendable points) Define ranks and rank-up commands Define reward shop items and pricing Customize UI colors + icon URLs __________________________________ Commands (configurable): /rep or /reputation - Opens the reputation UI __________________________________ Sample/Default Config: { "Commands to open UI": [ "rep", "reputation" ], "How often can a player give rep to the same player": 86400, "How often to reset player's total rep give limit": 86400, "Max reputation gives per total window (per player)": 5, "Spendable points awarded to TARGET per rep received": 2, "Spendable points awarded to GIVER per rep given": 1, "Wipe reputation + rank on new save?": false, "Wipe spendable points on new save?": false, "Ranks / Levels": [ { "Rank Name": "Fresh Face", "Points Required (total rep)": 1, "Commands On Reach (optional)": [ "mail.send %steamid% \"Rank Up: Fresh Face!\" \"Welcome to the community!

TeamFinder adds a clean, in-game Looking For Group / Looking For Members system to your Rust server. Players can post LFG listings when they’re solo, and team leaders can post LFM listings to recruit. Everything runs through an intuitive UI: browse listings, open player request details, invite, request to join, and manage incoming requests, all without needing repetitive lfg chat spam. Key Features LFG + LFM Listings LFG (Looking for Group): solo players post a listing with a description. These listings are public and team leaders can easily invite players. LFM (Looking for Members): team leaders post a listing tied to their current team. Solo players can submit an invite request along with a short description. Simple UI Workflow Full UI with a main listings panel + side panel for invite request management. Filters: All / LFG / LFM Click a listing to view: Player name + avatar Listing type tag (LFG/LFM) Full description Invite & Request System LFG listings: team leaders can directly send a team invite. LFM listings: solo players can request an invite to join that team. Optional request note (short message) included with join requests. Built-In Safety Rules / Cleanups Players can’t request invites if they’re already in a team. Players can’t be invited/request if they already have a pending Rust team invite. If a player joins a team, their other pending join requests are cleaned up automatically Invalid LFM listings (disbanded teams) are auto-removed when detected. When team leader changes, the listing ownership is moved to new leader. Reminders & Notifications Audible invites reminders for: Players with pending team invites Leaders with pending join requests Configurable reminder interval. Chat message when a LFG/LFM request is posted. Editable UI customize colors for: panels frames row borders buttons tags (LFG/LFM) input fields scrollbar elements and more via the config Localization All UI content neatly arranged in the lang file, allowing for easy translation. ________________________________________________________________ Permissions teamfinder.admin - Required to run clear commands and remove other player's listings. Chat Commands /lfg - Opens the Party Finder. This command can be changed, and multiple commands added within the config file. /lfg.clear - Admin command to clear ALL LFG listings /lfm.clear - Admin command to clear ALL LFMlistings ________________________________________________________________ Default config is created and should meet the needs of most servers.

Mail System is an in-game mail and notification system for Rust servers, allowing players to send “emails” to online and offline players. Admins will also benefit from being able to include attachments such as items, commands, and economy rewards, and players can now open support tickets for staff assistance directly in-game. Designed for wipes, announcements, rewards, crash compensation, support, and direct communication, Mail System ensures both online and sleeping players receive admin messages, while also providing threaded conversations—replies are appended to the original message—so players can follow the full back-and-forth anytime via a simple UI they can access at any time. Perfect For Admin announcements Server rules and new player welcome messages Compensations Reward delivery Event prizes Player to Player communication Core Features Persistent inbox per player Messages are delivered even when players are currently offline Configurable inbox limits per player - oldest message deleted if limit exceeded. Optional wipe-based inbox clearing Simple message creation Ability to input subject and message content Recipient can be easily selected via a player picker UI, with unique colors and icons for Online/Sleeper/Staff Optional image per message via ImageLibrary. Available Image URLs (recommend square images eg 512x512) can be configured. Default/Example images have been included. Clean scrollable UI and configurable max length for long messages. Admins can easily include a combination of items, economies, or commands ran against the recipient. Messages and attachments can also be created via console commands, perfect for use in other plugins. Known Limitation: Rust does not currently have a functional multi-line support (as in, hitting enter to create a line break won't create a line break for the recipient). However. when typing message content, entering \n will create a new line in the resulting message as shown in attached screenshots. Facepunch is aware of this and UI input functionality will be updated accordingly. Unread notifications Notification sound upon receiving new message Visual indicator for unread messages and attachments Customizable position and size of on-screen notification bell Support Tickets (In-Game Helpdesk) Create new tickets with subject + message Staff groups can view/respond to all tickets (permission group based, configurable) Open & Closed ticket views (toggle), with close/reopen controls Threaded ticket history: every reply is stored and displayed as a conversation Attachments & Rewards Each message can include any combination of: Item rewards Multiple items per message Custom display names Optional skin IDs Inventory-safe claiming Command rewards Ability to run server commands on claim Supports placeholders to ensure command is run against the recipient (%steamid%) Repeatable command execution via amount entry Economy rewards Economics ServerRewards TCBank each handled independently, with clear failure feedback if unavailable or failed Players claim attachments directly from the inbox with a single click and receive a clear summary of what was successfully claimed and what failed, if anything. 🛠 Admin & Console Tools Send messages with attachments: Using In-game UI Using Console commands Attach rewards and images using simple flag-based commands Ability to include attachments is admin permission based Target: Individual players All players (Online and Sleepers) Customization Customize HUD icon and unread indicators Customize online/sleeper/staff icons Built-in notification HUD position & size editor (no config guessing) Customize available images which can be included in messages. Adjust HUD colors Configure subject/message max lengths and inbox size. Localization via lang files Timestamp +/- offset Chat Commands: /inbox - Opens the Inbox UI where players can view and send/reply messages /tickets - opens the Tickets UI /sendmail "PlayerName" - optional chat command to send message to specific player without going through inbox/player picker /inbox_top - Admin command to view players with largest inbox sizes /inbox_clear "PlayerName" - Admin command to clear a specific player's inbox /notif_iconpos - Admin command to reposition and resize the notification icon (auto saves) Permissions: mailsystem.send - required to be able to send messages mailsystem.admin - required to add attachments via UI and run admin commands mailsystem.ticketopen - allows opening/using the Tickets UI mailsystem.ticketstaff - marks a player as ticket staff (can view/respond to all tickets) mailsystem.ticketmanage - allows managing tickets (e.g., close/reopen regardless of creator) Console command functionality Console commands can be used for both messaging and attachment delivery using flags, with included option to select which image will appear in the message Basic command structure is as follows: mail.send <playername OR SteamID> "<subject>" "<content>" [flags] mail.sendall "<subject>" "<content>" [flags] Available flags are desribed below and may be used multiple times and in any order: Image Flag: -img <number> Sets the message image. Uses the image list from the config Index starts at 0 0 = first image, 1 = second, etc. _______________________________ Item Flag: -item <shortname> <amount> <skinId> optional:"displayName" Adds an item attachment. skinId may be 0 Custom name is optional If omitted, the item’s default name is used _______________________________ Commands Flag: -cmd "<name>" "<command>" <amount> Runs a server command when claimed. amount specified how many time to run the command. It defaults to 1 Supports %steamid% and %name% wildcards - useful when sending to all players or via other plugins. "name" is what the player will see as the attachment name (instead of seeing the command itself) _______________________________ Economy Flag: -eco <type> <amount> Adds a currency attachment. Supported types: Economics ServerRewards TCBank _______________________________ Example Console Commands: Below are some example console commands. Note you can use \n\n for following text to start as a new paragraph Simple message only to single player(with image) mail.send PlayerName "Welcome!" "Welcome to the server.

I have done my best to document the full functionality, but if any doubt do not hesitate to open a support request.
