I am trying to program a column in the scoreboard for Gmod TTT that displays rank and rank color of the person. I am also trying to program, so the name colors of admins, owners, etc. have there steam name change color as well. I thought I was done, but when I launched Gmod I don't get a scoreboard and I get an error. Anybody know where the problem is or a working piece of code to get the rank column and changed name color? Changes to the code I made are labeled. The labels state where the change starts and stops with three enters above the start and three enters below the end.

All those errors are saying that the word "row" is not defined as anything, so any time that's it's used, it's nil (empty).
.
I'm not sure if this is a case of your not understanding the error message or what... but what the error you're getting means is that the vgui class you're trying to create doesn't exist. When that happens vgui.Create returns nil so any code tyring to use that element will error.
Check for errors preventing sb_row from loading properly and post those.

How could I fix this though?
