So I had a dream,
That one day rust could be like other survival games I've played. Through map making and prefab design I've delved I to a world I never thought I'd make it to with rust and my vision is getting clearer to what my ideal rust would be.
Through creativity and structing my maps based on my vissions I've always been left with a few holes. When playing rust we hit trees, nodes, barrels, find boxes along roads or placed on structures. What we lose is immersion through the currentoot system and I know eventually they aim towards open world looting, so in time it will be were I want it but who knows how long.
Now my vision is simple though I've yet to figure out all the parts I need to make this plugin on my own. I've tried with other devs and they know who they are and thanks to them I've narrowed my idea down to a closer better formed and maybe possible vision.
With prefab creation taking rust to new ideas and expansions of creativity what we lack are more customized options for our developments. My idea I feel would assist in adding one more step to an idea rust custom map. Below I'm going to paste my idea and semi concept of this plugin. I hope to here back on it and see if it's possible, any notes or ideas to better make or improve my concept, an I would really appreciate the time taken to read this and any future involment with my idea.

So something like this:
Configuration:
LootContainerPrefab - If empty no loot container will be used
Radius - Radius where interaction is possible using E
LootTable - List of short names
Chance - % based
InteractionText
SuccessMessage
FailureMessage
Location
Cooldown
ChanceOfExplosion - %
ExplosionFxPrefab
ExplosionDamage
description of plugin:
Basically the plugin would allow me to stand infront of an area say a gaspump or custom prefab, Id be abke to set an invisable lootcontainer in the location like a radius sphere i can see with perms granted to auth 1,2 but to players its invisable. when i set the name for the location id be able to edit the config for the lootables i want per each location as well as a name for when the container is opened like how it says "large box" id have it say something else.
when player is near radius a message for "press e to search" there would be a random chance for them to fet a succeful search and get the randomly generated loot from my loot profile or they would fail the search and get a message "You found nothing of intrest " if failed it would despawn the invisable loot conatiner as if it was looted and respawn bassed on a default loot respawn timer.
if im setting it up at a gas pump id set it up as
/CSPadd "name"
/CSPadd pump
loot table would be simple chance of lowgrade,chance of deisel and chance of sticks
id set a chance for spawn explosion at player to a random chance so be it successfull or failure theres a chance they can die. like syphoning the pump went wrong.
Id call the plugin CustomSearchPoint
this plugin would be insanly usefull to the map making community so we could make are own lootable objects in rust edit then in game use a plugin ti set uo the custom lootlocations without having to use the generic loot crates. id also like to be able to
add extra locations to each profile so i can have multiple of the same loot areas across the map but use the same loot tables.
other command examples
/CSP = list commands for plugin
/CSPadd "name" = set name of profile created
/CSPedit "name" = edit profile
/CSPaddspawn = while editing profile llows adding aditional points for the profile to take place.
/CSPdel "name" = deletes profile of name
/CSPrespawn "name"= respawns profile currently editting.
/CSPrespawnall = respawns all profiles
This is what I've come up with thanks to devs such as steenmaroo and karuza. Thanks for your time.
