ULX "Promote"

[Legendx]

Hey,

I need something like "ulx adduser", just that it promotes people without demoting
Example:

"promote Username operator"
user -> operator

What I don't want it to do:
"promote Username user"
operator -> user

So actually no demoting at all for this command.

Could somebody please help me out? :)

Do you want a ulx command that promotes people?

If you want that test out this code(im not sure if it will work but I think so)

function ulx.promote( calling_ply, target_ply, rank )
	ULib.ucl.addUser(target_ply:SteamID(), {}, {}, rank)	
     ulx.fancyLogAdmin( calling_ply, "#A promoted #T ", target_ply )
end
local promote = ulx.command( CATEGORY_NAME, "ulx promote", ulx.promote, "!promote" )
promote:addParam{ type=ULib.cmds.PlayerArg }
promote:addParam{ type=ULib.cmds.StringArg, hint="rank"}
promote:defaultAccess( ULib.ACCESS_SUPERADMIN )
promote:help( "Promotes target." )

No he is basically asking for a system where there is basically a chain of command on his server and a command that can only bring a person up the chain of command not down.

I want following...
Lets say the admin is called.. serveradmin.
and the user... guest.

serveradmin uses this promote command (promote guest operator)
guest ranks up from user -> operator

what should NOT happen:
serveradmin uses this promote command (promote guest user)
guest loses the operator rank, operator -> user

So that the second one isn't possible. [Because a promotion which gives you a worse rank SHOULD NOT be possible]

I am gonna try that, thanks!

Edit: That actually is like adduser, so you can do that: admin -> user, I want that to be not possible. user>operator>admin>superadmin

ULX allows for an inheritance "tree", which means you don't always necessarily have a linear chain of command for groups (although most people set it up that way).

However, you can use [url=http://ulyssesmod.net/docs/files/lua/ulib/shared/sh_ucl-lua.html#ucl.getInheritanceTree]ULib.ucl.getInheritanceTree[/url] as an easy way to figure out what the next level up is likely to be.
