EXCLUSIVE RUST PLUGIN Admin Battery Charge 1.6.0

Admin Battery Charge v1.6.0​

New Features​

Charging Box Support​

Added support for automatically charging rechargeable battery items when they are placed inside approved skinned storage boxes.
Default supported charging box skin:

• 3733398168

Additional skin IDs can be added through the configuration file.

Supported Battery Types​

• Small Rechargeable Battery
• Medium Rechargeable Battery
• Large Rechargeable Battery

---

Automatic Battery Charging​

When a rechargeable battery item is placed inside a supported charging box:

1. The plugin detects the storage box skin.
2. The plugin verifies the item is a rechargeable battery.
3. The battery charge is automatically restored to full capacity.
4. The updated charge value is immediately saved and synchronized.

---

Charge Values​

Rust stores rechargeable battery item charge internally using stored values rather than the values shown in the UI.
Default stored values:

Battery Type	Visible Capacity	Stored Value
Small Battery	400 rWm	24,000
Medium Battery	9,000 rWm	540,000
Large Battery	24,000 rWm	1,440,000

Formula:
Stored Value = Visible rWm × 60
Example:
400 rWm × 60 = 24,000

Existing Features​

Command Recharge​

Players with permission:
adminbatterycharge.use
can fully recharge deployed batteries using:
/chargebattery

---

Hammer Recharge​

Players with permission:
adminbatterycharge.hammer
can instantly recharge deployed batteries by hitting them with a hammer.

---

Configuration Improvements​

Added documentation directly into the configuration file explaining how rechargeable battery charge values are stored internally by Rust.
Example:
"Battery Item Full Charge Amounts - Stored Value Note": "These values are Rust stored charge values. Formula: visible rWm value x 60."

---

Debug Logging​

Optional console logging is available to assist with troubleshooting.
When enabled, the plugin reports:

• Charging box detection
• Battery type detection
• Applied charge values
• Internal stored charge values

---

Fixed​

• Fixed rechargeable battery items not charging correctly inside charging boxes.
• Fixed incorrect charge conversion resulting in batteries displaying only partial charge.
• Fixed old test values interfering with battery charge calculations.
• Improved storage container synchronization after charge updates.
• Improved item update handling to ensure charge values persist correctly.

/chargebattery
adminbatterycharge.hammer
Allows charging deployed batteries by hitting them with a hammer.

Admin Battery Charge v1.3.0​

New Features​

Battery Charging Storage Box​

Added support for automatically charging rechargeable battery items when they are placed inside specially skinned storage containers.

Supported Battery Types​

• Small Rechargeable Battery
• Medium Rechargeable Battery
• Large Rechargeable Battery

Supported Charging Box Skins​

The plugin now checks the skin ID of the storage container and will only charge batteries placed inside approved charging boxes.
Default supported skin:

• 3733398168

Additional skin IDs can be added through the configuration file.

Automatic Charging​

When a rechargeable battery item is moved into a supported charging box:

• The plugin detects the battery item.
• The plugin verifies the box skin ID.
• The battery charge value is set to its configured maximum capacity.
• The item is updated immediately.

Configured capacities:

Battery Type	Charge Amount
Small Rechargeable Battery	400
Medium Rechargeable Battery	9000
Large Rechargeable Battery	24000

Existing Features​

Command Recharge​

Players with permission:
adminbatterycharge.use
can recharge deployed batteries by looking at them and using:
/chargebattery

Hammer Recharge​

Players with permission:
adminbatterycharge.hammer
can instantly recharge deployed batteries by hitting them with a hammer.

Debug Logging​

Optional debug messages can be enabled through the configuration file.
When enabled the plugin logs:

• Box skin detected
• Battery type detected
• Charge amount applied

Example:
Charged battery item inside skinned box. BoxSkin=3733398168, Item=electric.battery.rechargable.large, Charge=24000

How It Works​

Deployed Batteries​

Deployed batteries are charged using Rust's native battery system:
battery.rustWattSeconds = battery.maxCapactiySeconds
This is used by:

• /chargebattery
• Hammer charging

Battery Items​

Battery items stored in containers use item instance data rather than battery entity data.
When placed into a supported charging box the plugin:

1. Detects the battery item.
2. Identifies its type.
3. Applies the configured charge value.
4. Updates the item immediately.

This allows charging batteries before they are deployed.
