Hello, I've got a code to out the players rank next to their name in chat, but instead it just says terrorist or spectator?
[CODE] function insertChatTags(ply, msg)
if ply:IsValid() then
local ply_team = ply:Team()
local team_name = team.GetName( ply_team )
--local h,s,v = ColorToHSV( team.GetColor( ply_team ) )
--local comp_col = HSVToColor( 180-h, s, v )
--PHX-Server specifics
if ( team_name == "Owner" ) then
comp_col = Color(255,255,255)
elseif ( team_name == "Co-Owner" ) then
comp_col = Color(255,255,255)
elseif ( team_name == "SuperAdmin" ) then
comp_col = Color(255,255,255)
elseif ( team_name == "Admin" ) then
comp_col = Color(255,255,255)
elseif ( team_name == "Donator" ) then
comp_col = Color(255,255,255)
elseif ( team_name == "Trusted" ) then
comp_col = Color(255,255,255)
elseif ( team_name == "user" ) then
comp_col = Color(255,255,255)
team_name = "Guest"
elseif ( team_name == "Member" ) then
comp_col = Color(255,255,255)
team_name = "Member"
elseif ( team_name == "Trusted" ) then
comp_col = Color(255,255,255)
team_name = "Trusted"
else
comp_col = Color(255, 255, 255)
end
chat.AddText( team.GetColor( ply_team ), "[",comp_col, team_name,team.GetColor( ply_team ), "] ", ply:GetName(), color_white, ": ", msg )
return true
end
end
hook.Add( "OnPlayerChat", "ulx_chattags", insertChatTags )
[/CODE]
Why is it not working?
Also this is code from a plugin, and I have no knowledge of LUA, so there's probably a lot of things wrong in here.

Thanks in advanced.
because ranks aren't set up as teams, if you're using ULX it would be ply:IsUserGroup("superadmin")
That code is doing exactly what its supposed to. When you use ply:Team() it gets there team. Thats what it means. You probably want ply:IsUserGroup( "Owner" ) or whatever.
I'm still extremely bad at code, what part of the code do I actually need to change? Where it says [CODE]elseif ( team_name == "Donator" ) then[/CODE]
Or [CODE]local ply_team = ply:Team()
local team_name = team.GetName( ply_team )[/CODE]
All of it. You don't want to use ply_team. You want ply:IsUsergroup, sub it out accordingly.
I made him a script.
Could I get a script for this as well, I'm having the same issue
