Unturned: RocketMod

RocketMod .NET Game Server Plugin Framework for Unturned the Online Game. The Legally Distinct Missile aka LDM is the latest version of RocketMod.

RocketMod used to be a popular modding framework for Unturned, but has disbanded and the project was discontinued in late 2019.

The Legally Distinct Missile (or LDM) is a fork of Rocket for Unturned maintained by the game developers (SDG) after the resignation of its original community team. Using this fork is recommended because it preserves compatibility, and has fixes for important legacy Rocket issues like multithreading exceptions and teleportation exploits. Nelson, the creator of Unturned, has forked RocketMod 4 and continues to keep up combability to Unturned 3. The core mod is now part of the game distribution.

Installation

The necessary modules must be installed. The original Rocket Mod is an abandoned project. A fork is maintained by the game developers so that functionality can be maintained.
The dedicated server includes the latest version, so an external download is not necessary.

1. Install "Legally Distinct Missile (RocketMod 4) - Fork of Rocket for Unturned maintained by the game developers"
2. Install the necessary RocketMod Libraries
3. Install the RocketMod 4 Plugin: RocketTools.dll

RCON

Remote Console connection is made with a simple telnet client. You can use the 'telnet' command on linux or software for Windows such as Putty or CRT. RCON must be enabled on your Unturned server. Navigate to the configuration file and set the service to 'true' then restart the server.

1. Edit Rocket.config.xml ( Servers/server/Rocket/Rocket.config.xml )
2. Change <RCON Enabled="false" Port="0" Password="" to <RCON Enabled="true" Port="25444" Password="yourpassword"
3. Save and restart the server

Additional Modules: RocketMod 4 Plugins

In the permissions.config file, (In the server > rocket) you'll need to add player-accessable commands. Here's some common ones: Home, tpa, tpa.accept, tpa.deny, kit.kitname

All of the modules are not covered here, only some of the current modules commonly used. Plugins need to be compiled in order to be used. Some may not support the latest versions of Rocket or Unturned. If you are using a game hosting provider then odds are that they will provide many of these already compiled.

• RocketMod_TPA.dll - Just like TPA in Minecraft, this allows players to request a teleport to other players and the other player can accept or deny their request.
