Setting Up a Rust Server with a No-Kill Zone (Safe Zone)

Creating a No-Kill Zone (Safe Zone) on a Rust server allows players to trade, build, and socialize without the risk of PvP combat. This is useful for community servers, RP servers, and PvE environments.

This guide will walk you through creating a no-kill zone, preventing player damage, and managing PvP-free areas using VolticHost Game Panel.

📌 Prerequisites

A Rust server purchased at VolticHost.com
Access to VolticHost Game Panel
Oxide/uMod installed for plugin-based safe zone management

1️⃣ Install ZoneManager for Custom Safe Zones

Log in to VolticHost Game Panel.
Navigate to Mod Manager and install Oxide (uMod).
Download ZoneManager from uMod.
Upload the ZoneManager.cs file to:
```
/oxide/plugins/
```
Restart the server to activate the plugin.

✅ ZoneManager is now installed for safe zone creation!

2️⃣ Create a Safe Zone Using ZoneManager

Open the Console tab in VolticHost Game Panel.
Fly to the location where you want the No-Kill Zone.
Run the command to create a new zone:
```
zone_add
```
Get the zone ID by typing:
```
zone_list
```

Apply safe zone settings to prevent player damage and raiding:

zone_edit ZoneID nobuild true
zone_edit ZoneID nodecay true
zone_edit ZoneID noplayerdamage true
zone_edit ZoneID npcsafe true

✅ Players inside the zone are now protected from PvP and raiding!

3️⃣ Customize Safe Zone Properties

To prevent item looting inside the safe zone, use:

zone_edit ZoneID undestr true

To disable weapon usage, use:

zone_edit ZoneID noweapon true

To automatically kill players who attack others in the safe zone, enable:

zone_edit ZoneID kill true

✅ Your safe zone now has full protection and restrictions!

4️⃣ Add Safe Zone Spawn Protection

If you want new players to spawn in the safe zone:

Install the Spawns Database plugin from uMod.
Set a spawn point inside the safe zone with:
```
spawns add SafeZoneSpawn
```
Assign it to new players using:
```
spawns setdefault SafeZoneSpawn
```

✅ New players now spawn safely in a PvP-free area!

5️⃣ Restart the Server to Apply Changes

Navigate to the Console tab in VolticHost Game Panel.
Click Stop to shut down the server.
Wait a few seconds, then click Start to relaunch the server with safe zone settings.

✅ Your Rust server now has a No-Kill Zone in place!

🎉 Conclusion

You've successfully created a No-Kill Zone (Safe Zone), configured PvP restrictions, and enabled spawn protection for your Rust server using VolticHost Game Panel! Players can now safely trade, interact, and build within protected areas. 🚀
