How do I return a table of all models in a certain job?

[InVaLiD_EDM]

So I'm creating an F4 menu esc. NPC, and I've encountered a wall. So basically this NPC replaces the jobs tab in the F4 menu, however if a job (like citizen) has multiple models, I cant seem to get all the models that job has to offer into a new window that pops up after you click 'become', the most I can get is this:

Those are all the same models, but pasted for the amount of models in that table.
My code is messy (and also quite large) so I wont be posting it unless you absolutely need it. I will however show the fundamentals of whats going on:

(By the way, yes I'm acutely aware that i'm using table.GetFirstValue, and that is my issue, But I cant find a workaround.)

I think you are looking for the table "RPExtraTeams", which essentially has all the information regarding darkrp jobs and category inside it, including models

Yes, However I need it to get the model from the job that is currently selected. The actual UI looks like this:

'Gun dealer' in this picture is selected, and it properly shows his model, mainly because he only has one model to choose from, so the variable 'model' is not a table, however, if you go to something like citizen, which has many models to choose from, the variable 'model' is then a table, my question is: How do I get the table of models from the selected job, Like, If I selected Citizen, how would I pop up a window with all the model choices?

[confuseth]

The models are usually stored as a table when it has more than 1 (or its a table regardless idk), you just loop through that table of models and add a panel or whatev for each model in the table

you can use this Functions/DarkRP/Shared/getJobByCommand
you'd use this to access the model value inside the job table and then simply check if it's a table to see if it has multiple model options.
how a job table is constructed DarkRP

I understand this, but how would I show them? I can use istable() to actually figure out if it is a table, but how would I show a list of all possible models? kinda like this in the normal darkrp f4 menu:

there's a table called RPExtraTeams
if you index it with the number of one of your teams, it will return a table containing info about that job
local jobtable=RPExtraTeams[TEAM_CITIZEN]--you use a number to index this table and it returns the table about the job whos number cooresponds or it returns nil
if !jobtable then
print"job doesn't exist"
return
end
local models=jobtable.model
if type(models)=="string" then
print(models)
else
for i,m in ipairs(models) do
print(m)
end
end
the code above prints every model of the default citizen job
we can wrap this into a function
local function getjobmodels(TEAM)
local jobtable=RPExtraTeams[TEAM]
if !jobtable then--error handling
return {"models/player.mdl"}
end
local models=jobtable.model
if type(models)=="string" then
return {models}
elseif type(models)=="table" then
return models
end
return {"models/player.mdl"}
end

Yes, of course, But how would I set them into individual 'DModelPanels?

Obviously you would create a model panel for each model in the job,

##//CODE//##
local eDModelPanel = vgui.Create("DModelPanel",eModelSFrame)
eDModelPanel:SetSize(100,100)
local spacingY = 0
local paddingY = 100

for k,v in ipairs(models) do
eDModelPanel:SetPos(0,spacingY)
spacingY = spacingY + paddingY
end
##//CODE//##

But how would I set the model to the Model Panel without them all being the same?
If I put eModelPanel:SetModel(models) inside the for loop, it sets the models all to the same thing, this right here is my original problem.
