Vehicle driver seat question

[gbeorg23]

Well, i am keen on finding the script which allows to enter the driver seat of the specific vehicle only for one job.

You’ll need to return false in this hook: GM/CanPlayerEnterVehicle
if you don’t want the player provided to enter a specific vehicle. Implementation is left as an excercise for the reader.

local allowedJobs =
{
"Citizen",
"Civil Officer",
"Mayor"
}

hook.Add("CanPlayerEnterVehicle", "JobOnlyVehicles", function(ply, veh)

local job = ply:getJobTable().name

for k, v in pairs(allowedJobs) do

if(v == job) then

return true

end

end

return false

end)

This should do it

yeah, i guess it its, but where can i get the name like prop_vehicle_airboat ?

Look at the vehicle you want to get the name of and type this in console (Client console)
lua_run_cl print(LocalPlayer():GetEyeTrace().Entity:GetClass())

[gbeorg23]

gives nothing

You should check console for errors next time, the code above would obviously throw some for multiple reasons. Try this fixed code:

local tVehicleWhitelist = {
["prop_vehicle_airboat"] = {
["Citizen"] = true,
["Gun Dealer"] = true,
["Hobo"] = true
},
["prop_vehicle_jeep"] = {
["Civil Officer"] = true,
["Mayor"] = true
},
["prop_vehicle_prisoner_pod"] = {
["Gangster"] = true,
["Mob Boss"] = true
}
}

hook.Add("CanPlayerEnterVehicle", "JobSpecificVehicles", function(pPlayer, pVehicle)
local sJob = pPlayer:getJobTable().name

-- Player doesn't have a job name for some reason
-- Allow them to enter by default
-- This can be avoided by using TEAM_* enums instead of job names
if (sJob == nil) then
return
end

local tVehicleJobs = tVehicleWhitelist[pVehicle:GetClass()]

-- If the vehicle isn't registered, allow anyone to enter
-- If the job is in the vehicle table, allow the player to enter
if (tVehicleJobs == nil or tVehicleJobs[sJob]) then
return -- Let other hooks have a chance!
end

return false
end)

ubre's solution works, just make sure you have sv_allowcslua enabled.
