Description

IronWastelandInfo is a clean and customizable welcome / information menu for Rust servers. This plugin was originally created for a custom server project for someone else, so it is meant to be adjusted to your own needs before use. The background image, server text, rules, commands, Discord link, website link and donate section should be customized to match your own server.

The plugin supports English and German language switching, custom server information, ImageLibrary background support and works with Oxide and Carbon.

Commands

Internal UI / console commands:
iwinfo.close
Closes the info menu.
iwinfo.tab
Switches between the menu tabs.
iwinfo.lang
Changes the player language between DE and EN.
iwinfo.refreshbg

Permissions

ironwastelandinfo.use
Allows players to use the /info command.
Example:
oxide.grant group default ironwastelandinfo.use

Installation

Upload the file to:

oxide/plugins/
or
carbon/plugins/

Optional but recommended:
Install ImageLibrary if you want the background and donate images to load cleaner and faster.

Reload the plugin or restart your server.

Give players permission to use the menu:

oxide.grant group default ironwastelandinfo.use

Edit the config file here:

oxide/config/IronWastelandInfo.json

Reload the plugin after changing the config:

oxide.reload IronWastelandInfo

Customize the plugin for your own server.
Change the background image, server information, rules, commands, Discord link, website link and donate section to match your project.

You can also add your own Matrix / QR code image for the donate section by changing the Donate Image Url in the config. This can be used for donation links, server support pages or any other custom image you want to show in the menu.

The menu texts can be changed in the language files for both DE and EN. This allows you to customize the German and English text separately.

Troubleshooting

The /info command does not open the menu
• Make sure the player has the permission ironwastelandinfo.use.
• Use: oxide.grant group default ironwastelandinfo.use
• Reload the plugin afterwards.

The background image does not show
• Check if the image URL is valid and reachable.
• If ImageLibrary is enabled, make sure ImageLibrary is installed.
• Use iwinfo.refreshbg or reload the plugin.

The donate image does not show
• Check the Donate Image Url in the config.
• Make sure ImageLibrary is installed if Use ImageLibrary is enabled.
• Reload ImageLibrary and then reload IronWastelandInfo.

The menu opens in the wrong language
• Check Default Language (de/en) in the config.
• If Try Detect Client Language is enabled, the plugin will try to use the player client language.
• Players can also switch manually between DE and EN inside the menu.

The menu does not open automatically on join
• Set Open On Join to true in the config.
• Check Open Delay Seconds.
• Reload the plugin after saving the config.

Players see “You are not allowed to use this command”
• The permission is missing.
• Grant the permission: oxide.grant group default ironwastelandinfo.use

ImageLibrary warning appears in console
• Install ImageLibrary or set Use ImageLibrary to false in the config.
• Without ImageLibrary, the plugin can still use direct image URLs.

Compatibility

• Compatible with Oxide / uMod Rust servers
• Compatible with Carbon Rust servers
• Uses Rust CUI for the in-game interface
• ImageLibrary is optional but recommended
• Supports English and German language settings
• Does not modify gameplay, items, loot, damage or player stats
• Safe to run alongside most other Rust plugins
• Only requires permission access for the /info command
