Not an Issue Updating plugins and reloading

Hi all, I'm new to using Oxide 2 on my rust server. Just had a couple questions.

What is the process for updating plugins? Just download the new .lua file and upload and replace the old one?

Also, when you make changes to a config file for a plugin, the only way I know how to get the changes to take effect is to restart my server. Are there in game chat commands that can do this?


Thanks for any help. Love using Oxide 2, it makes my server the way I want it to be.

 

That's exactly what you need to do, do keep in mind that sometimes a config needs to be removed as well when there are major changes to the plugin but this should always be stated by the plugin developer in the update post.

You can use the console command oxide.reload, i.e. for m-Teleportation.lua you can use "oxide.reload m-Teleportation" (without the quotes ofcourse).

 

Thank you so much for the info, is there a list of Oxide console commands somewhere? I can't seem to find anything about this?
Thanks

 

oxide.load <name>
oxide.reload <name>

 

You can also use "find ."(yes, a dot ) to have the console return all the available console commands, this includes the rust console commands and the console commands added by the Oxide core and plugins. You can also replace the . (dot) with any search term for functions, i.e. "find global":
