OnServerCommand

OxideCarbonServer

Called when a server console command is executed.

Useful for auditing or overriding server-side console commands.

object OnServerCommand(ConsoleSystem.Arg arg)
Works — the game method in this build is the one the hook was written for.

Parameters

arg
ConsoleSystem.Arg

Return value

objectReturn non-null to cancel the game action.

Example

object — you can affect the game: return a value to change or cancel the action.

private object OnServerCommand(ConsoleSystem.Arg arg)
{
    Puts("OnServerCommand");

    // change nothing — the game continues as usual
    return null;

    // to affect the game:
    // return false; // non-null cancels the game action
}

Works in both Oxide and Carbon: Carbon loads Oxide plugins as is.

Where it is called

Oxide core (Oxide.Rust)
RustCore::IOnServerCommand(ConsoleSystem.Arg arg)

Oxide core code — the hook is called from here

// …

// Ignore all chat messages
if (arg.cmd.FullName == "chat.say" || arg.cmd.FullName == "chat.teamsay" || arg.cmd.FullName == "chat.localsay")
{
    return null;
}

// Is the command blocked?
object commandSpecific = Interface.CallHook("OnServerCommand", arg);
object commandCovalence = Interface.CallHook("OnServerCommand", arg.cmd.FullName, RustCommandSystem.ExtractArgs(arg));
object canBlock = commandSpecific is null ? commandCovalence : commandSpecific;
if (canBlock != null)
{
    return true;
}

return null;
// …

Injection point

Rust.opj (Oxide)
bool ConsoleSystem.Internal(ConsoleSystem.Arg)

Injected internal hook IOnServerCommand — this hook is called by its handler in the Oxide/Carbon core

WorksReturnBehavior: ExitWhenValidTypeArgumentBehavior: UseArgumentString (a0)Facepunch.Console.dll

Where it is called (this branch's game code)

private static bool Internal(Arg arg)
{
	if (arg.Invalid)
	{
		return false;
	}
	object returnvar = Interface.CallHook("IOnServerCommand", arg);
	if (returnvar is bool)
	{
		return (bool)returnvar;
	}
	if (!arg.HasPermission())
	{
		arg.ReplyWith("You cannot run this command");
		return false;
