List of issues
I cant seem to get a few things in my new server working, one of them being any loot plugin, ive tried BetterLoot, MagicLoot and Loot Plus and none have worked properly all with different issues.

On top of this, I cant seem to figure out how to permanently remove radiation from my server. Theres nothing in my cfg other than users.cfg so I use the console to "Server.radiation: False" and it works temporarily but as soon as the server restarts or anything it will revert.

Additionally but a lot less important, I couldnt get Voteday through the Skip Night UI plugin to work either, Nor could I figure out how to properly change my server description and image header, I used a console command of like server.headerimage "" or something along those lines but nothing worked.

Lastly and maybe most important, my server isnt showing up on the Rust client under modded or anywhere for that matter? I can only connect via F1 / connect <ip>

Any and all help is appreciated
Im quite desperate for some help. please
server.radiation False

writecfg

or

add +server.radiation 0 in your startup bat file.

server.radiation False

writecfg

or

add +server.radiation 0 in your startup bat file.

Ive done server.radiation false and it only works temporarily. How do i set this up in a startup bat file? also the only thing in my server/your-server-identity/cfg is users.cfg

I installed both and neither created a config file in my /oxide/config/ even after restarting multiple times, this is the same issue ive been having with some other plugins

I think there must be something wrong with your system configuration ! , I can understand maybe one plugin not comiling properly and not generating the files in Config/Data/Lang folders but not when you say that it is more than one.
I have 86 +RustIO and they are all compiling as they should,
Are you on a hosted server with full FTP access (as i am) or running your server from home ?
I used to have that same problem about 4 years ago when i was using Multiplay as a host and had to leave and find another host with full access.

I mean, so far it sounds like Oxide isn't installed.

Oxide has to be installed because not only do I have the /oxide/ files in my FTP but also I have a decent amount of plugins that DO work, e.g. (Vehicle Licence, Crafting Controller, Death Notes, Gather Manager, Info Panels, Kits, NTeleportation, StackSizeController, Trade)

but then i have some which either I have yet to test or dont seem to be working such as: (Event Randomizer, Inbound, Loot Plugins, Auto Doors(Havent tested))

EDIT: Just as an FYI i only got this server yesterday so all of these mods, plugins etc would have to have been updated overnight if any of them are outdated but the vast majority havent been updated for months. Additionally i have even double chekced to make sure there wasnt a steam update for the server

Firstly, inside of your cfg folder will be a server.cfg file. Here you’ll put your server convars. Now in console you must type “server.readcfg”. Any convars you set through console, you must run “server.writecfg”. Some convars won’t take immediate effect and will require a server restart. Make sure your server name/description is properly set to be searched.

Secondly, as far as the plugins I’m not entirely familiar with them. When uploading the plugins, you see any logs of them loading?

The logs of the plugins essentially just state it didnt load properly due to a lack of a config file, also what you need to realise is in my cfg folder is NOTHING other than users.cfg which *I* created in an attempt to admin myself via that but it didnt even work. Should I create these files?

Okay lets break this down, to start off with the issues ive been having with the Loot plugins have been different, I believe MagicLoot and Better Loot neither created a config file in /oxide/config/ whereas Loot plus just blatantly didnt work and the config file was limited and didnt have many things to customize in it.

With the radiation, I have done that command in game many times and sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt however whenever the server gets restarted or what, it all comes undone again and you immediately get destroyed by rads.

With the voteday plugin, I tried using SkipNightUI which didnt create a config file nor did the command /voteday work in game, so I tried a different one suggested to me called SkipNightVote which had the same thing and didnt work

Regarding the server not appearing on the list, I restarted the server with updates on but there doesnt appear to be an update. I doubt anything would need an update incl mods and plugins as I installed everything/set up the server yesterday. I have also waited up to 10 minutes for the server to appear in the list and it still doesnt. Only thing left to do is clear the cache which i am about to do however i dont have much hope.

Thanks

Plugin configurations are under oxide/config, not Rust's server/identity/cfg.

Also, the server.writecfg command is only for users and bans, not for general commands as another user suggested. The server.readcfg however would read the server.cfg and other cfg files from Rust, but neither of these are related to Oxide and plugins. If adding anything to Rust startup, use your command-line or manually edit the server.cfg.

Rust server listings are also very limited, so it's very likely that your server may never show.

My server doesnt even show when I type the name in the search bar, no matter what the name is. And yes i am aware plugin configs are under oxide/config but the problem is after downloading and adding the .cs file to the oxide/plugins it doesnt create a file in oxide/config in order to configure it. Multiple plugins all with the same issue, but not ALL plugins

If a configuration file isn't created; then those plugins either do not have a configuration file, the plugin isn't loaded, or that folder is inaccessible. If the folder is inaccessible, then there would be errors in your logs about that. If the plugins do not loaded, there'd also be errors in your logs. I'd also suggest making sure you are looking in the right location.
