SelectiveEAC Module

The SelectiveEAC Module is an optional Carbon module that allows certain users to bypass EAC (Easy Anti-Cheat) encryption enforcement. This is done using permission and group-based access control, making it ideal for custom clients, testers, or offline developer environments.

Note: This module is best used in controlled or private environments. It modifies EAC behavior and may conflict with strict anti-cheat setups.

Overview

• Class Name: SelectiveEACModule
• Enabled by default: No
• Supports Configuration: Yes
• Source: Carbon.Modules/SelectiveEACModule
• Forces Modded Tag: No

When enabled, this module patches internal Rust server methods to override how encryption and EAC validation work on join.

Configuration

The config is defined in SelectiveEACConfig:

{
  "UsePermission": "selectiveeac.use",
  "UseGroup": "selectiveeac"
}

• UsePermission – Grant this permission to allow EAC bypass.
• UseGroup – Users in this group also bypass EAC.

You can grant permission like:

oxide.grant user 7656119XXXXXX selectiveeac.use

Or assign a user to the group:

oxide.usergroup add 7656119XXXXXX selectiveeac

Use Cases

• Developer/test servers with custom clients
• Admins using modified tools or builds
• Partial EAC test environments

⚠️ Warning: Misuse of this module can compromise server integrity. Use only when necessary and with trusted players.

This module is a low-level override and should be used with care. It provides a unique capability for advanced Rust server setups needing more flexibility around client validation.
