I Use this Config on Gameservers.com
I use RustAdmin.Com to Access my Server Console
and I use Filezilla to access my mods...... and other FTP Files..... Can anyone please help me?
If you're hosting your server off GameServers, you should have a button called "Steam Update".
Would this be it?

That is correct, shut the server down. Then run a Server Update, and seeing as you're using Oxide you'll need to follow up with a Oxide 2 update (Oxide update times vary)
Once complete, start the server up again.
So when the Update Rolls around I:
Shut Down The Server
Update the Server to the latest verion
Reinstall Oxide for update
Restart Server?
If I do this will all my plugins still be in my new oxide when I reinstall it or will I have to re download/reconfigure them all?
Yes, that's the correct order. No, your plugins and all your config files will be just as you left them. It never hurts to make backups though for "Just In Case"
I already have them all in a flash drive, thanks so much for the help dude.... I thought this was gonna be some huge process that would completley fuck me over but this seems pretty easy
Not a problem!
Because it's hosted on a Game Server, the process has been made simple for you. If it was local hosted... Well, that's a whole other subject.
