Artifacts is a collectible-event plugin that turns ordinary loot containers across your Rust server into opportunities to discover rare themed artifacts.

Players find special skinned items hidden in world loot crates and barrels, then register them through the plugin’s collection interface. Each artifact belongs to a themed set - such as ancient relics, cursed bones, elite soldiers, and more. Completing a full set awards the player with configurable server rewards, including items, permissions, scrap, supply signals, economy rewards, or any command-supported prize.

Key Features

Themed collectible sets with fully configurable artifact names, rarities, skins, descriptions, and drop rates.
Fully configurable loot containers, respawn intervals, rewards, UI colors, images, and artifact data.
Rarity system with customizable colors and world-spawn chances (separate from world loot).
Set-completion rewards using configurable server console commands.
Artifact registration system that can consume items upon collection.
Custom UI for viewing progress, browsing sets, and registering found artifacts.
Event support, including options to require an active event before artifacts spawn.
Custom visual and sound effects for opening the UI, registering artifacts, and completing sets.

Artifacts provides a long-term collectible objective for players, encouraging exploration, looting, trading, and competition while giving server owners complete control over rarity, progression, and rewards.
