Bring Rust monuments to life with cinematic, high-intensity combat events. Armed Deployment dynamically delivers a Bradley APC, heavy scientists, and a hackable locked crate to any location you choose, all inserted by an immersive Chinook deployment sequence.
Watch as a Chinook approaches the target zone, descends, deploys hostile forces, and extracts — creating a truly memorable server event that feels built into the game rather than scripted. Players must eliminate all threats and destroy the Bradley APC before they can claim the locked crate and its rewards.
Features
• Spawn deployments anywhere on the map
• Cinematic Chinook delivery and extraction
• Heavy Scientists with controlled roaming
• Bradley APC with movement blocking
• Hackable Locked Crate rewards
• Dynamic deployment radius and map marker
• Server-side UI progress tracking
• Automatic cleanup and despawn timers
• Admin-controlled start and cancellation
• Automated deployments with configurable intervals
• Fully configurable values

This plugin is designed to feel vanilla-friendly, cinematic, and performance-aware. It works especially well on servers that want high-risk, high-reward PvP encounters without relying on random world events.
Feedback, suggestions, and feature requests are always welcome.

AdvertCycler lets you create a rotating list of on-screen info messages (“adverts”) that display to players without spamming chat. It’s a clean, unobtrusive alternative to chat-based announcers, and the positioning is designed to remain consistent across different screen resolutions and UI scale settings.
 
Messages cycle on a configurable timer, either in order or randomly. You can fine-tune how the message looks and where it appears using:
Preset alignment modes (Bottom Center / Bottom Left / Top Center / Top Right) Horizontal + Vertical offsets (with small/big nudge controls for precise positioning) Max text line width Font size Optional text outline with configurable color (quick-pick color swatches in the UI)  
Admin UI (Instant Apply)
AdvertCycler includes a built-in admin UI for live editing and previewing changes in real time:
Toggle the plugin on/off Adjust interval, alignment, offsets, width, and font settings Enable/disable outline and pick outline color Choose whether the advert displays on Overlay or Hud Manage the message list: Add / Edit / Delete Reorder messages (move up/down) Paging for large lists All changes apply instantly, so you can visually tune placement and style while in-game.
 
Permissions
advertcycler.admin - Grants access to the admin UI and allows editing of all AdvertCycler settings and messages.
advertcycler.view - players/groups with this permission will be shown the advert messages.
 
Chat Command
/adverts - opens the editor UI

📦 Stack Size Controller – Balanced Configuration Packs
Includes 4 different configs. Pick one to use, or use different configs on multiple servers. 
Some stack values are based on the gather rate; however, overall, resources and similar items are set higher based on player experience and community feedback.
⚙️ Server Compatibility
- Suitable for 3x, 5x, 10x and PvE servers
- If higher stack sizes are desired, the 3x preset can safely be used on 2x servers without causing major balance issues or technical problems
 
🧠 Professionally Designed & Tested
All configurations are manually created from scratch and are not auto-generated or simple default edits.
Each configuration has been:
- Actively tested on live servers for over 2 years
- Used on long-running, active servers
- Adjusted based on real player behavior and feedback
- Balanced with economic flow and recycler outputs in mind
The goal is to improve quality of life without breaking progression or server economy.
 
⚖️ Balanced Design Philosophy
Not every item is meant to be stacked.  
Below are the core principles behind how these configurations are designed.
 
🛠️ Durability & Skin Safety
Weapons, clothing, doors, and certain electrical items are intentionally excluded from stacking.
These items rely on durability (condition) mechanics and often support skins.  
Stacking them may cause condition conflicts, incorrect durability behavior, skin desynchronization, and inventory-related bugs.
To maintain server stability and predictable gameplay, these item types are deliberately kept unstacked.
 
💣 Explosives & Economy Control
F1 Grenades, Smoke Grenades, and similar explosive items are intentionally excluded from stacking or only increased by reasonable amounts.
This approach helps prevent gunpowder inflation, balance abuse, and uncontrolled progression.
 
📦 Stackable Item Categories
- Resources (Some resources have been stacked above the normal limits in line with strong player demand, especially wood and stone, among others.)
- Components (Excessive stacking has not been applied in order to maintain recycling balance; it has been kept at a controlled and balanced level.)
- Food items
- Medical items
- Ammunition

🚀 Easy Installation
1. Choose one of the 4 configuration presets



2. Copy StackSizeController.json into your config folder

3.  Oxide.reload StackSizeController  OR  c.reload StackSizeController
🔌 Required Plugin
This configuration pack requires the Stack Size Controller plugin.
