Description

The Cupboard – is a powerful tool that every Rust server needs.

Rust gameplay is based on the opportunity to raid and take the loot but there is a problem that raiders usually destroy the tool cupboard and take the base under their control. This affects base owners and most of them leave from the server and you lose your online.

The Cupboard solves the problem
It provides many combinations for server owners to keep their lovely project PVP-based (or even PVP/PVE) and prevents losing online because of “base griefing”.

How it works

Example of usage (default):

1. TC can be destroyed by authorized players anytime
2. TC can be destroyed by not authorized players during 24 hours after placement
3. If a raider attacks a TC it will drop 90% of loot needed for the base upkeep and all the loot not needed for the upkeep

This case allows the base owner to keep his base safe after 24 hours of the TC being placed and allows anti-raiders completely destroy a small base built by raiders as a spawn point near the base they are going to raid.

Default plugin setup improves the experience of players who do not want to lose their base during their gameplay on your server and keeps the opportunity for anti-raiding in a classic way (or allows players to destroy new structures around their base during next 24 hours).

Time preset can be adjusted according to your wishes.

The feature that allows dropping resources from the TC is very useful (even if the TC can not be destroyed). It allows your players to get the loot and reduce time left for the upkeep, and on the other hand it gives the opportunity for the base owners to have some time to fill it back with needed resources and to keep control under their base.

The Cupboard provides as many combinations as possible to control damage dealt to the TC. You even can control the rules of damage dealing for authorized players.

Your players can type in chat “/tc” and they will get full information about TC damage dealing rules and of course they can receive the same information while attacking the TC (or you can just remove any notifications using config).

Players will also receive in chat your TC damage rules after the TC being placed.
