How to install plugins
1. Log in to your panel, go to your Rust server, and use the built-in "File Manager" to navigate to the server's directory.
2. Once you are in file manager, you should find a folder named oxide. This is where Oxide plugins are managed.
3. Inside the oxide folder, there's another folder called plugins. This is where you'll place the plugin files you want to install.
4. Visit the uMod/Oxide website (umod.org) or and browse their plugin library for Rust. Choose the plugins you want and download them. They will typically be .cs files.
5. Using the Pterodactyl File Manager or your SFTP client, upload the downloaded .cs plugin files directly into the oxide/plugins folder on your server.
If the plugin is up to date and not missing dependent plugins/extensions (Such as ImageLibrary, for example, which is used/required by many plugins), it will load automatically.Â
Many plugins have configuration files that let you customize their settings. These are often located in the oxide/config folder, but some will be within your Oxide/data folder refer to the specific plugin page for instructions. You can edit these files using the File Manager or FTP client.
Important Notes:
Plugin updates: Check for updates to your installed plugins periodically. You can usually find updates on the uMod website.
Permissions: Some plugins may require you to configure permissions to control which players can use certain features.
Troubleshooting: If you encounter issues, check the plugin's documentation on the uMod website or seek help from the plugin developer or the Rust community.
Following these steps, you can easily install and manage Oxide plugins for your Rust server through the oxide folder, adding new features and enhancing your gameplay experience.
