help with PAC + rank restriction

[arcticdx]

hey guys so i need a bit of help.

my class selection menu uses this code for group restriction. but the problem is that i dont know how to make it so it works with other ranks too. i tried adding like ,("superadmin"), ("owner"), ("admin") but didnt work. please help me.

function meta:SetPlayerClass( num )
if num == CLASS_SWAT then
if self:CheckGroup("vip") then
self.Class = num
else
self:NoticeOnce("Only VIP and higher ranks can access to SWAT class.", GAMEMODE.Colors.Red)
end
else
self.Class = num
end
end

theres no errors. that code works . i just need to figure out how to make it so other ranks than vip can access the class too.

Check out this code:

if self:CheckGroup("vip") then

I believe you know what to do.

i tried if self:CheckGroup("vip", "admin", "superadmin") then but didnt work.

That's not how coding works.

self:CheckGroup("vip") or self:CheckGroup("admin") or self:CheckGroup("superadmin")

[arcticdx]

thanks ! that part works but i still have other part of the code in other .lua file and its like

if k == CLASS_SWAT and !LocalPlayer():CheckGroup("vip") then
how i add other ranks to that :/ sorry im new to lua :(

[crazyscouter]

He literally put that in his example. Use the "or" operator along with the checkgroup method, refer to robots post for help.

[arcticdx]

if k == CLASS_SWAT and !LocalPlayer():CheckGroup("vip") or !LocalPlayer():Checkgroup("owner") then

i tried that it didnt work <.<

[crazyscouter]

Lua is case sensitive. You need to rename Checkgroup("owner") to CheckGroup("owner")

[arcticdx]

i did that but it still didnt work. is the Localplayer required? or can i do or CheckGroup(owner)

[crazyscouter]

Well you shouldn't be using LocalPlayer() at all if your not running this client-side. Also as it appears you're running this in a meta function, you really should be doing self:CheckGroup(blah) as self is the player.

[arcticdx]

button.OnMousePressed = function()
if k == CLASS_SWAT and !LocalPlayer():CheckGroup("vip") or !LocalPlayer():CheckGroup("owner") then
RunConsoleCommand( "changeclass", k )
else
RunConsoleCommand( "changeclass", k ) RunConsoleCommand( "changeteam", TEAM_ARMY ) self:Remove()
end
end

Try this, Suchipi gave me this so it should work, I forget if this works or not.

hook.Add( "PrePACEditorOpen", "RestrictToSuperadmin", function( ply )
    if not ply:GetUserGroup("donor") then
		chat.AddText("Only Donors can use PAC3")
        return false
    end
end )

hook.Add("PrePACConfigApply", "donators only", function(ply, outfit_data)
    if not ply:GetUserGroup("donor") then
		chat.AddText("Only Donors can use PAC3")
        return false
    end
end)
