PowerfulBans is a complete, database-backed ban system for Rust. It runs perfectly on its own (chat and console commands, login enforcement, and its own SQLite or MySQL database), and when you also run PowerfulAdmin it adds a full in-game ban management panel. >>> No dependency required. Install PowerfulAdmin only if you want the UI. Why PowerfulBans? Works on its own. Commands, enforcement and storage all work with no other plugin installed. PowerfulAdmin is optional and only adds the in-game panel. Your own database. Bans live in SQLite (zero setup) or MySQL/MariaDB, ready to share across your whole server network. One banlist for your network. Point every server at the same MySQL database and a ban on one server applies on all of them, instantly. A real in-game panel. Search, page, ban, extend and unban from a polished UI that follows your PowerfulAdmin theme (requires PowerfulAdmin). Steam-aware. Optional VAC/Game ban checks and auto-kick using your own Steam Web API key. Safe by design. If the database is unreachable, bans are blocked with a clear message instead of silently failing, and a broken connection is reported on startup. The in-game panel (requires PowerfulAdmin) A dedicated Bans section in the Tools category: Live ban list with search (by name or SteamID) and pagination. Each entry shows the name, SteamID, reason, who issued it, and a clean live remaining-time countdown (e.g. "9d 1h 10m" or "permanent"). One-click Extend and Unban (with a confirmation step). A Ban dialog with: - a searchable, paged player picker showing online status, VAC/Game ban flags and Rust hours; - reason templates plus a free-text reason and a staff-only comment; - duration presets (1h, 6h, 1d, 7d, 30d, permanent) or a custom duration like `1d12h`. A Ban action right in the player popup, anywhere in the panel. Theme-aware: colors, fonts and switches follow your active theme. Every action is written to PowerfulAdmin's Logs. Database and multi-server SQLite (default): nothing to configure, the database file is created automatically. Perfect for a single server. MySQL / MariaDB: share one banlist across many servers. Each server can carry its own name in the shared data. Switch storage and migrate your data right from the Settings page, with row-count verification that reports a clear error if anything goes wrong. Prefer the console? Migrate without the UI from the server console: pb.migrate <sqlite|mysql> Bans are checked directly against the database on every login (no stale cache), so cross-server bans take effect immediately. Steam integration (optional) Set your Steam Web API key in the PowerfulBans config (or from the Settings page)and PowerfulBans can: show VAC / Game ban status on the player picker; automatically kick players who have a recent VAC/Game ban, with a configurable threshold in days. This works with or without PowerfulAdmin. Rust playtime on the picker is shownwhen PowerfulAdmin is present. Steam results are cached in the plugin's own database and refreshed automatically, respecting Steam's rate limits. Commands Chat: /ban <name|steamid> [duration] [reason] /unban <name|steamid> /baninfo <name|steamid> /ban help - show all commands Console / RCON: pb.ban <name|steamid> [duration] [reason] pb.unban <name|steamid> pb.info <name|steamid> pb.list [page] - paged active ban list pb.migrate <sqlite|mysql> - migrate storage to another backend (server console only) Duration examples: "30m", "2h", "7d", "1d12h". Empty or "0" = permanent.

Fourteen granular permissions let you hand juniors exactly what they need and nothing more. Scales with you.

Commands /padmin - (Chat) Open the admin panel pa.setup <steamid/name> - (Console) Grant the full permission set to a player (one-time) Everything else happens inside the panel no commands to memorize. Requirements & Compatibility Storage: SQLite or JSON work with zero setup; MySQL is optional for networks. Discord & Steam API: entirely optional the plugin runs perfectly without them. Quick Start Drop the plugin into your scripts folder; it loads and creates a clean config automatically. Run pa.setup <your name or steamid> once to give yourself full access. Type /padmin in-game. (Optional) Open Settings to switch to MySQL, connect Discord, or add your Steam API key. That's it you're running. FAQ Q: Do I need MySQL or a database server? A: No. SQLite is the default and needs zero configuration. MySQL is there only if you run multiple servers and want shared data. Q: How do admins open the panel? A: With the /padmin chat command, provided they have at least the powerfuladmin.use permission. Q: How do I give my staff access? A: Grant the permissions above (per user or per group) right inside the Permissions page, or use pa.setup for a quick full grant. Q: Is Discord required? A: No, it's completely optional. Everything in the panel works without Discord. When you do want it, set it up entirely in-game. Q: Will it lag my server? A: It's built for performance object pooling, partial UI redraws, debounced saves and tuned update intervals keep the footprint small. Q: Can players abuse it? A: No. Every page and action is gated behind its own permission, and you can even lock the plugin's own permissions so they can't be edited. Q: Is the ESP a "cheat"? A: It's a server-side admin tool rendered through the engine's debug draw and only shown to admins with the ESP permission there is no client-side mod involved. Q: Can I manage offline players? A: Yes. You can teleport to, mute, heal, strip and otherwise manage a player's sleeping body. Actions that genuinely need a live connection (like kick) are disabled while they're offline. Q: Can I move from SQLite to MySQL later? A: Absolutely there's a one-click live migration in Settings that moves your data between backends. Q: Is it multi-language? A: It ships with full English and Russian, and every string is in language files, so adding a new language is just a translation. Q: Can I change how it looks? A: Yes choose from the Rust, Midnight and Plum themes. Q: Do I need a Steam API key? A: Only if you want the "total Rust hours" stat on player cards. Everything else works without one. Q: What about bans and player freezes? A: Ban and Freeze are reserved for an upcoming DLC add-on and currently appear as placeholders. All other moderation tools are fully included. Roadmap Bans DLC full ban management (timed/permanent, templates, history) Freezes DLC freeze/unfreeze players in place Continuous polish, more themes, and additional languages API PowerfulAdmin administer your Rust server the way it should be: fast, visual, and powerful.
