Rusty RCON

Rusty RCON
A fully featured in-game RCON and admin control panel with a modern multi-tab UI, live server console, player management, plugin control, permission management, and error log viewer - all without leaving the game!

Features

• Live server console with paginated log output, real-time capture, and in-UI command execution
• Direct command input - type and execute any server console command from within the game.
• Server information dashboard panels and convar control available.
• Player cards for online and sleeping players with health, food, water and ping stats at a glance.
• Full player action suite - kick, ban, mute/unmute, heal, hurt, kill, teleport to/from, strip inventory, reset metabolism, and view inventory live
• Plugin browser with search, per-plugin load/unload/reload, and live action feedback.
• Permission tab with GROUPS and PLAYERS modes - grant/revoke permissions, add/remove group membership, and create/delete groups
• Sleeping player support on both the Players tab and Permissions tab via a dedicated toggle
• Alphabetically sorted player and group lists throughout
• Error log tab with keyword filter presets (Error, Exception, Crash, Fatal, and more), a SHOW ALL / ALL ERRORS toggle, dropdown multi-select filters, and text-style export
• Seven built-in UI themes - HACKER, MODERN DARK, MODERN BLUE, APOCALYPSE, MODERN RED, CYBERPUNK, and MODERN LIGHT - all fully applied to every button, label, and panel
• Zero data file bloat - everything except theme preferences runs entirely in active server memory.

Permissions

rustyrcon.use - Required to open the RustyRCON UI and access all tabs and actions

Chat Commands

/rcon - Opens the main RustyRCON admin panel

(Note: All panel navigation, player actions, plugin controls, and permission edits are handled by UI-bound console commands and do not need to be typed manually.)

Caveats

• Only players with the rustyrcon.use permission can open the panel - grant it only to trusted admins.
• The mute/unmute toggle in the UI is tracked in memory only; it mirrors the server mute/unmute console command and respects whatever mute plugin you have loaded.
• Log capture is limited to the last 500 lines in memory to prevent performance degradation on busy servers.
