I notice people making these cool plugins. I would like to start by asking is there a way to create custom animations for a server like a jumping jack or something? I have a lot of ideas but would like to know what tools are required or what tools people use to create these mods. I seen fire arrows but what if I wanted to make an lightning arrow? 

Just kind of looking for guidance or a reference for making mods so I can get a better understanding! Any help is appreciated!

• An IDE such as Visual Studio or Rider
• A .NET decompiler such as JustDecompile, dnSpy, etc.

You can't make custom animations with Rust, if that's the game you are thinking about. Plugins are made by looking at game code and modifying behavior of existing functionality.

The "tools":

• An IDE such as Visual Studio or Rider
• A .NET decompiler such as JustDecompile, dnSpy, etc.
