Shoot To Ban: Automated Player Banning for Rust Servers

This plugin provides an automated system for banning players on your Rust server who repeatedly engage in hostile actions, specifically shooting other players. It aims to improve the server experience by reducing griefing and disruptive behavior. The plugin tracks player actions, and once a configurable threshold is reached, it automatically bans the offending player. This can significantly reduce the administrative burden of manually managing disruptive players, allowing server admins to focus on other aspects of server management.

Key Features:

• Automated Banning: Automatically bans players who exceed a defined number of shots fired at other players within a specified timeframe.
• Configurable Thresholds: Admins can customize the number of shots and time window before a ban is triggered, allowing for flexible server moderation.
• Reduced Admin Workload: Frees up server admins from manually handling disruptive players.
• Improved Gameplay: Creates a more positive and enjoyable environment for players by reducing griefing.
• Ban Duration Customization: Admins can set the duration of the ban (permanent or temporary).
• Whitelist Feature (Optional): Allows specific players to be exempted from the automatic ban system.

How it Works:

The plugin monitors player actions, counting the number of times a player shoots another player. If the predefined threshold is met within the specified time limit, the plugin automatically bans the player. This process is designed to be efficient and minimize false positives.

Benefits:

• Enhanced Server Stability: By removing disruptive players, the plugin contributes to a more stable and balanced server environment.
• Improved Player Experience: Creates a safer and more enjoyable experience for all players.
• Streamlined Server Management: Reduces the amount of time admins need to spend managing player behavior.

This plugin is a valuable tool for any Rust server administrator looking to improve their server's gameplay and community experience by automatically managing disruptive players.
