Hi, I am custom coding Jackool's Liquid RP, a remake of DarkRP. It runs off DarkRP with many added files. Jackool has added the following function that adds players to VIP, and I'm having trouble usuing that VIP function to restrict certain jobs to VIP only. Here is the fuction jackool uses:
[code]
local meta=FindMetaTable("Player")
function meta:IsVIP() -- VIP system is small only for release. Edit as you desire
return (table.HasValue(LDRP.AllVIPs,self:SteamID())) or self:IsAdmin()
end
[/code]
All my attempts simply result in the job breaking and disapearring from the job list.
Thanks everyone!
Here's on ething I tried. I placed the following into player.lua. It ended up breaking the file, and therefore the whole gamemode. The starred/commented out section is where I edited.
[code]
function meta:ChangeTeam(t, force)
if RPArrestedPlayers[self:SteamID()] and not force then
if not self:Alive() then
Notify(self, 1, 4, string.format(LANGUAGE.unable, team.GetName(t), ""))
return
else
Notify(self, 1, 4, string.format(LANGUAGE.unable, team.GetName(t), ""))
return
end
end
self:SetDarkRPVar("helpBoss",false)
self:SetDarkRPVar("helpCop",false)
self:SetDarkRPVar("helpMayor",false)
if t ~= TEAM_CITIZEN and not self:ChangeAllowed(t) and not force then
Notify(self, 1, 4, string.format(LANGUAGE.unable, team.GetName(t), "banned/demoted"))
return
end
if self.LastJob and 10 - (CurTime() - self.LastJob) >= 0 and not force then
Notify(self, 1, 4, string.format(LANGUAGE.have_to_wait, math.ceil(10 - (CurTime() - self.LastJob)), "/job"))
return
end
if self.IsBeingDemoted then
self:TeamBan()
vote.DestroyVotesWithEnt(self)
Notify(self, 1, 4, "You tried to escape demotion. You failed, and have been demoted.")
end
if self:Team() == t then
Notify(self, 1, 4, string.format(LANGUAGE.unable, team.GetName(t), ""))
return
end
local TEAM = RPExtraTeams[t]
if not TEAM then return end
if not self.DarkRPVars["Priv"..TEAM.command] and not force then
if type(TEAM.NeedToChangeFrom) == "number" and self:Team() ~= TEAM.NeedToChangeFrom then
Notify(self, 1,4, string.format(LANGUAGE.need_to_be_before, team.GetName(TEAM.NeedToChangeFrom), TEAM.name))
return
elseif type(TEAM.NeedToChangeFrom) == "table" and not table.HasValue(TEAM.NeedToChangeFrom, self:Team()) then
local teamnames = ""
for a,b in pairs(TEAM.NeedToChangeFrom) do teamnames = teamnames.." or "..team.GetName(b) end
Notify(self, 1,4, string.format(string.sub(teamnames, 5), team.GetName(TEAM.NeedToChangeFrom), TEAM.name))
return
end
if GetConVarNumber("max"..TEAM.command.."s") and GetConVarNumber("max"..TEAM.command.."s") ~= 0 and team.NumPlayers(t) >= GetConVarNumber("max"..TEAM.command.."s")then
Notify(self, 1, 4, string.format(LANGUAGE.team_limit_reached, TEAM.name))
return
end
end
if self:Team() == TEAM_MAYOR and tobool(GetConVarNumber("DarkRP_LockDown")) then
UnLockdown(self)
end
self:UpdateJob(TEAM.name)
DB.StoreSalary(self, TEAM.salary)
NotifyAll(0, 4, string.format(LANGUAGE.job_has_become, self:Nick(), TEAM.name))
if self.DarkRPVars.HasGunlicense then
self:SetDarkRPVar("HasGunlicense", false)
end
if TEAM.Haslicense and GetConVarNumber("license") ~= 0 then
self:SetDarkRPVar("HasGunlicense", true)
end
self.LastJob = CurTime()

Oh, I also tried adding the first function as an "extra check" at the end of each job that requires VIP only. It resulted in each job breaking and not showing up on the f4 menu.
Still stumped everyone! No idea how to do this still.
I'd like to add that VIP's are saved in a .txt files in the data folder, since Jackool, the creator or LiquidDRP, didnt optimize with sql

Nearly 200 veiws with 0 comments? Come one now I know I didn't stump the FP communty :P
Another bump for a clueless coder, Please help me out guys/gals!
Why the fuck are you calling string.format? You don't need it. Get rid of it, especially since you aren't even calling it correctly, which may be why its fucking up...
Also, no one is replying because you are not giving us errors, line numbers, etc.
Give us something to work off of before you just say "Here, fix my code".
[code]
if t == TEAM_HITMAN
and !meta:IsVIP()
then Notify(self, 1, 4, "This job is donator only!))
return
end
if t == TEAM_VIPGANG
and !meta:IsVIP())
then Notify(self, 1, 4, ("This job is donator only!")
return
end
if t == TEAM_VIPBOSS
and !meta:IsVIP()
then Notify(self, 1, 4, "This job is donator only!")
return
end
[/code]

Also, it would be more efficient to modify it so all your VIP lines are in 1 if statement with OR's since you are doing the same shit each time.

I can't read for shit.
