Sold by: KpucTaJlWater Patrol – A plugin that adds marine patrols to your server to patrol your islands waters
A plugin that adds marine patrols to your server to patrol your islands waters
This plugin will spawn RHIBs with NPCs on your server that will patrol the water and chase any players that they notice
The player has the option of escaping the raiding patrol, or they can instead fight the NPCs and if successful and victorious, you can take the loot they hold in their boat
Should the player have a beachside base, or decide to hide inside anywhere near the waters edge, the NPCs will not hesitate to pull out their rocket launchers and go to work!
In the configuration for the plugin you can create several patrol presets, each having their own population on the map. Adjust also the amount of NPCs in the boat, their clothing and weapons, all of their parameters for difficulty and challenge, as well as adjust and customize the loot table for each preset
The best map for the plugin to work is a map with a lot of sea. I can recommend the maps of the Mad Mappers team developers:

Was that 6 boats total between all of the presets?
It is known that the plugin took a big performance hit several wipes ago when Facepunch made a bug change to the water system in the game, increasing the amount of performance the plugin requires. Generally though most have been able to counter this by reducing the amount of boats.
Ensure you have lowered the total amount as there are a few presets in the default settings, but if you are still having issues you can jump into the Mad Mapper Discord to discuss, just create a ticket and tag us.
I only use one preset.
I’ve just removed it until I see a performance update. Thanks for the reply though.
In case it is helpful and you wanted to use them to guard just a specific location or two, there is the custom spawn point option. This helps some by being able to use lower amounts but use them in targeted locations.
“Yes, indeed, the server’s FPS drops by 20-30%, even though only 3 boats are used. No other plugin causes such a significant FPS drop as this one. The processor is a Ryzen 7 5800X3D, DDR4 3200. The server’s FPS limit is 40; without the plugin, it’s 39-40, but with the plugin, it drops to 31-35.”
The large overhaul of the water system in Rust many wipes ago had a significant affect on the plugin and in turn the plugins impact on server resources. While yes there is a frame impact, many servers can still run the plugin without so much impact that players notice or the server is unplayable. There are some servers though that just cannot handle the impact of the plugin even with fewer boats or presets enabled.
If you have more feedback or want to discuss further please join the Mad Mapper Discord and create a ticket there. You can tag me and KpucTaJl. The developer is willing to offer what he can in light of the situation.
Plugin FAQ – How do I use this .zip/.7z file I just purchased on my server?
• First, you want to unzip the file. You can do so by just double-clicking it to open, then drag the contents to the desired location (you may need to install an external unzipping software if you don’t already have one such as 7zip or winrar)
• Next you will find either a structure of folders or just the .cs file itself (it’s the actual plugin file itself).
• After that just install the .cs (plugin file) into your …/oxide/plugins/ folder where you will install plugins you ever need to.
Additionally, here’s a great video that easily covers adding a plugin to your server if you need! https://youtu.be/yWC_p97FhQA
• Installation is not included with any products on the site, however, if needed we may assist if you reach out to our support.
Currently all products on Lone.Design will be contained within a zipped file which is the .7z or .zip that you see. I believe windows 10 and up can unzip on its own without 3rd party tools, but in that case, if you’re unfamiliar with zipped files here are 2 programs I recommend to easily unzip zipped files.

Zipping/Unzipping Tools
Winrar https://www.rarlab.com (I used to use for years, but works great!)
7zip https://www.7-zip.org/a/7z2107-x64.exe (the one I use currently)

Today we witness in history where a developer can and has taken the stationary events on land, even the one on water with the submarine and took it to new heights. The WaterPatrol is an area that never has been taking (at least I haven’t seen any yet) and resulted in letting your players think twice about just hanging out and trying to get that salmon for dinner. Kpuc again has reached way outside the circle to bring danger, killing, and running for you life on the open waters. This adventure I am sure to add to my server. Guess my players will think twice now about trying to rocket a base from ocean. So get on the band wagon, I am sure Kpuc will have more adventures in the near future. Maybe planes that fly around and attack those in a mini, or a scrap heli. One may never know what is going through Kpuc’s mind that is so different from the rest.

It’s very funny to watch how fans of oil rig rush from the first minute of the wipe get their ass kicked by patrols! I recommend this plugin! :D

Amazing plugin, KpucTaJl has to be one of the best plugin maker I’ve experienced. This plugin works very well with KpucTaJl constantly updating it every time there is an issue. My players and I really LOVE it!
