How do I Add Rank Tags to names in DarkRP

[jpnumber1]

Hello! I know what your thinking "Ugh another kid trying to code a fail dark rp server".

I recently just finished my server today i added custom printers custom weapons etc. I'm not a pro with lua and know only the basics. I was wondering how can i make something like when someone talks in OOC it says (Donator) jpnumber1: Hey guys! or (Superadmin) jpnumber1 Hey guys! I'm not best at lua so sorry if your face palming right now but i could just use some help this is. That's what this section is for isn't it?

rank_str = "Superadmin"
rank_col = Color( 255, 0, 0 ) -- red for example
bracket_col = Color( 153, 50, 204 ) -- purplish
elseif ply:IsValid() and ply:IsPlayer() and ply:IsDonator() then
rank_str = "Donator"
rank_col = Color( 0, 255, 0 ) -- green
bracket_col = Color( 218, 165, 32 ) -- orangish
else
rank_str = ""
rank_col = Color( 255, 255, 255 )

None of that code will work unless you're planning on adding on to it.

A quick way of making chat tags in darkrp would be editing line 475 (or somewhere near it) of cl_init.lua where it says "chat.AddText(col1, name, col2, ": "..text)"

Replace it with:
[lua]
if ply:IsSuperAdmin() then
chat.AddText(Color(0, 255, 0), "(Superadmin) ", col1, name, col2, ": "..text)
elseif ply:IsUserGroup("donator") then
chat.AddText(Color(230, 180, 30), "(Donator) ", col1, name, col2, ": "..text)
else
chat.AddText(col1, name, col2, ": "..text)
end
[/lua]

If you use ulx create a group called "donator" for it to work for donators.
If you use another admin mod you're going to have to do some editing for it to work for donators.

Thanks it worked but I was wondering can you make work in only OOC and can you add a (Admin) one to? I'm afraid i'll fuck it up it. it would be great if u did.

This should add the Admin tag aswell. Has for the OOC thing I have no idea.

[lua]
if ply:IsSuperAdmin() then
chat.AddText(Color(0, 255, 0), "(Superadmin) ", col1, name, col2, ": "..text)
elseif ply:IsAdmin() then
chat.AddText(Color(255, 0, 30), "(Admin) ", col1, name, col2, ": "..text)
elseif ply:IsUserGroup("donater") then
chat.AddText(Color(230, 180, 30), "(Donater) ", col1, name, col2, ": "..text)
else
chat.AddText(col1, name, col2, ": "..text)
end
[/lua]
