RUST Authentication v2.1.2

Authentication is a plugin designed with private servers in mind. It makes it possible to setup one without having to worry about Steam Groups nor SteamIDs. Just choose a password of your preference and you're ready to go.

After wake up, players will be requested to enter the /auth command along with the password the server owner should have shared with them.

There's a limited time to enter the command after the wake up, if players fail to authenticate before the time runs they're kicked from the server. A maximum amount of retries can also be configured.

Usage​

1. Place Authentication.cs in the plugins folder.
2. Type in the server console: auth password [new password]
3. Done!
