for k, v in pairs(player.GetAll()) - Admins only.

[LukeDell]

Hello,

So I'm trying to create an admin Scoreboard, but when I try:

for k, v in pairs(player.GetAll()) do

         if v:IsUserGroup( "superadmin" ) then

                       -- scoreboard panel

         end

end

This does work, however it leaves gaps for people who aren't that rank as well, meaning there are gaps inbetween peoples names who are superadmins.
What would be the best way to do this, getting rid of the gaps?

My own, trying to make my own, but I want admins to only show on it and not players.
By using the above code.

Sure, this is the code for each panel.

for k, v in pairs(player.GetAll()) do
	if v:IsUserGroup( "superadmin" ) then
		ppp = vgui.Create( "DButton", bbgs )
		ppp:SetSize( bbgs:GetWide() - 5, 50 )
		ppp:SetPos( 5, 55 * (k-1) ) -- I think it'd to do with this bit, but not sure if it is.
		ppp:SetText( "" )
		ppp.Paint = function(self)
			draw.RoundedBox( 0, 0, 0, self:GetWide(), self:GetTall(), Color( 24, 109, 179 ) )
			draw.DrawText( v:Name(), "ButtonsFont", 5, self:GetTall() / 2 - 18, Color( 255, 255, 255 ), TEXT_ALIGN_LEFT )
	        end
        end
end

Create a table with all the ranks of staff ordered like so

local staff = {
admin = true,
superadmin = true
etc = true
}

then do the for loop and

if staff[v:GetUserGroup()] then
    --code
end

[QUOTE=Moat;52816555]Try this:
[lua]
local y_pos = 0 -- store y position outside of loop

for k, v in pairs(player.GetAll()) do
if v:IsUserGroup( "superadmin" ) then
ppp = vgui.Create( "DButton", bbgs )
ppp:SetSize( bbgs:GetWide() - 5, 50 )
ppp:SetPos( 5, 55 * y_pos ) -- use y value to get proper y position
ppp:SetText( "" )
ppp.Paint = function(self)
draw.RoundedBox( 0, 0, 0, self:GetWide(), self:GetTall(), Color( 24, 109, 179 ) )
draw.DrawText( v:Name(), "ButtonsFont", 5, self:GetTall() / 2 - 18, Color( 255, 255, 255 ), TEXT_ALIGN_LEFT )
end

y_pos = y_pos + 1 -- increase y value everytime we actually draw something
end
end[/lua]

Alternatively, you could use docking rather than setting the position. Which you would just call [img]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/favicon.ico[/img] [url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/Panel/Dock]Panel:Dock[/url] TOP on the button. (instead of SetPos)

Awesome, that worked!
Thank you so much, helped a lot, been trying different ways for a while, will give the table ago as well to learn more.
