This guide describes Remover Tool 4.3.48. Use the same version in the configurator.
Get the settings
Click Import, then From my server. Select the files and confirm loading them. Selecting a server does not replace the open document. You can also import files from this device or a configuration from My projects.
Edit and send
Adjust settings, fix errors, then use Send to transfer files to the selected server. A conflict blocks sending until you choose how to resolve it. You can still export only the files you need.

Server transfers have private backups. Save keeps your work in My projects; it does not send anything to the server. A download also lets you resume without a server connection.

Plugin instructions

Remover Tool 4.3.48

Remover Tool is an upstream uMod building and entity removal plugin. This Hub bundle models the complete constructor-generated 4.3.48 configuration and the shapes of the maps populated from the current Rust server build. Installation from uMod is a separate action, available with an SFTP-connected server.

Authorization and removal scope

Review Settings carefully. Teams, Clans, Friends, entity owners, locks, tool cupboards, and the optional BuildingOwners plugin change authorization decisions. Use Tool Cupboards (Strongly unrecommended) carries that warning in the upstream configuration. Enabling broad owner/cupboard rules can let users remove more than intended.

Permission Settings (Just for normal type) is a dynamic dictionary keyed by Oxide permission. Priority, distance, cooldown, duration, interval, object limit, payment, refund and timer reset are security- and economy-sensitive. The default contains removertool.normal; custom permission profiles must retain the exact value shape. Remove Type Settings controls Normal, Structure, All, Admin and External scopes. Structure/All removal is destructive and its per-frame value affects load. Test on a non-production server and keep backups.

Containers, damage, prices and refunds

Container Settings decides whether non-empty inventories are allowed, dropped as items, or dropped as an item container. Misaligned combinations can surprise players or lose expected contents. Remove Damaged Entities adds a health threshold and exclusions; lowering the percentage broadens removal eligibility.

Remove Info (Refund & Price) controls payments and refunds. A price/refund value may be a numeric percentage, a currency dictionary, or null. Each currency entry has exact amount and skinId keys. Allowed Building Grade, display names, building blocks, grades and other entity settings are dynamic maps. Validate economy-provider keys such as economics and serverrewards, and test rounding/refund behavior before deployment.

Modes, effects, integrations and GUI

Only one held-item/tool mode is intended to work at a time. Item shortnames and skin IDs must match Rust. Gib effects, bulk removal, intervals, maximum counts, cooldown exclusion, spawn-time limits and debug logging are advanced because they affect safety or performance. NoEscape can block use during raids or combat when that plugin is present. Upstream suggests Clans, RustIOClans, Economics, ServerRewards, Friends, ImageLibrary and RustTranslationAPI; none is mandatory in the manifest.

Open Appearance to preview the removal panel while changing its position, colors and images. The preview uses sample values, not your server’s live state. Remover Tool draws its own Rust CUI: edit these fields in the configurator, not in PimpMyCUI Editor.

Runtime-generated maps and automatic form limits

On first server initialization, 4.3.48 fills Building Blocks Settings from the current Rust construction definitions and Other Entity Settings from current deployables, then saves the file. Those entries vary with the Rust build and installed content, so the portable default keeps both maps empty while the schema accepts and validates every generated entry without dropping it. The plugin also populates allowed building grades at runtime. Import the server-generated JSON after first startup when you need to edit those exact entries.

Use the price, refund and entity fields in the configurator. Import your server-generated file to keep its current building and deployable entries. Advanced JSON is available when you need to inspect a value not covered by the form; import/export preserves those values rather than rebuilding the file from visible fields only.

Compatibility and update evidence

This bundle declares Oxide only. Carbon is not claimed because no concrete compatibility test was available for this review. Upstream: uMod page, official manifest, pinned source 4.3.48 under MIT, observed 2026-08-02.

Install the files

With a connected server, click Send in the configurator. The result shows whether the files were sent and the plugin reloaded. Without RCON, reload the plugin from your server panel after sending.

Without a connected server: Keep a copy of the current files. Place each export in the folder shown before export, or follow the paths in the ZIP. Do not put data or translation files in the config folder.

Follow the plugin instructions above for dependencies and reloading. Exporting does not connect the site to your server.
