Treehouse

Rust Treehouse Building Plugin for Oxide & Carbon

Build in the trees. Climb a jungle tree and build on its branches. (Experimental)

Carbon Oxide v0.8.7 Updated

Overview

Treehouse is built and tested on live Carbon and Oxide servers.

Build in the trees. Climb a jungle tree and build on its branches.

But beware, Rust was never meant to have houses in trees so some things are a bit jankey!

Building doesn't work the same because its blocked by the trees - so there's a workaround menu you have to use when holding a Building Plan and pressing "R".

You don't get blue placement markers but pieces place anyway... Takes a bit of practice but its not too painful.

Power terminals are blocked so there's a separate menu to get around that but wires go as the crow flies. Nothing is ideal but its enough to build a base if you're careful.

This is more for run and will never be a commercial plugin due to its many limitations - that's why its free.

Every download is licensed to you and watermarked with your details.

Features

  • Climbable trees
  • Platforms that follow the canopy

Install

  1. Download Treehouse.cs from My Plugins.
  2. Drop it into oxide/plugins or carbon/plugins.
  3. Grant the permission:
o.grant group default treehouse.use

The file name must stay Treehouse.cs — Oxide matches it to the class name.
