DarkRP Custom Chats

[Sir Zac]

Hey there,

I'm looking to make this chat only view-able by the team that is listed as "emergencyTeams". The code works, however, everyone can view it, which I don't want. If anyone could point me in the right direction I would be very thankful.

function EmergencyRadio(ply, args)
    local emergencyTeams = {
    TEAM_METCONTROL,
    TEAM_ERT,
    TEAM_RTPC,
    TEAM_SCO19,
    TEAM_DETECTIVE,
    TEAM_PARAMEDIC,
    TEAM_FIREFIGHTER
    }

    if(table.HasValue(emergencyTeams, ply:Team())) then
        if args == "" then
            DarkRP.notify(ply, 1, 4, DarkRP.getPhrase("invalid_x", "argument", ""))
            return ""
        end
        local DoSay = function(text)
            if text == "" then
                DarkRP.notify(ply, 1, 4, DarkRP.getPhrase("invalid_x", "argument", ""))
                return
            end
            for k,v in pairs(player.GetAll()) do
                local col = team.GetColor(ply:Team())
                DarkRP.talkToPerson(v, col, ply:Nick() .. " [Government Radio]", Color(7, 163, 175, 255), text, ply)
            end
        end
        return args, DoSay
    else
        DarkRP.notify( ply, 1, 5, "You are not in a service job, therefore, cannot use the radio." )
    end
end
DarkRP.defineChatCommand("gov", EmergencyRadio, 1.5)
DarkRP.defineChatCommand("radio", EmergencyRadio, 1.5)

In your player loop you never actually checked that the player’s job was in your job table.

[Sir Zac]

ok, can you advise me then on how to make it work so that only "emergencyTeams" can view the text chat.

[Alphaverse]

When you send the chat in the loop,check if the player you want to send it to is member of a emergency Team

[Sir Zac]

Thanks for the response. I understand what you are saying, however, I don't understand putting that into practice. I've tried to specify the loop but it's not working. Could you help me out.

[Alphaverse]

Just put an if check inside of the loop. You already done one further above to check the emergency team.

[Sir Zac]

Alright, well I added another one before DarkRP.talkToPerson, however, it still doesn't work.

function EmergencyRadio(ply, args)
    local emergencyTeams = {
    TEAM_METCONTROL,
    TEAM_ERT,
    TEAM_RTPC,
    TEAM_SCO19,
    TEAM_DETECTIVE,
    TEAM_PARAMEDIC,
    TEAM_FIREFIGHTER
    }

    if(table.HasValue(emergencyTeams, ply:Team())) then
        if args == "" then
            DarkRP.notify(ply, 1, 4, DarkRP.getPhrase("invalid_x", "argument", ""))
            return ""
        end
        local DoSay = function(text)
            if text == "" then
                DarkRP.notify(ply, 1, 4, DarkRP.getPhrase("invalid_x", "argument", ""))
                return
            end
            for k,v in pairs(player.GetAll()) do
                local col = team.GetColor(ply:Team())
                if(table.HasValue(emergencyTeams, ply:Team())) then
                DarkRP.talkToPerson(v, col, ply:Nick() .. " [Government Radio]", Color(7, 163, 175, 255), text, ply)
                end
            end
        end
        return args, DoSay
    else
        DarkRP.notify( ply, 1, 5, "You are not in a service job, therefore, cannot use the radio." )
    end
end
DarkRP.defineChatCommand("gov", EmergencyRadio, 1.5)
DarkRP.defineChatCommand("radio", EmergencyRadio, 1.5)

[Sir Zac]

void. I've fixed the issue. Cheers!

[Alphaverse]

What was the issue if someone else also is having issues?

[Tarion]

Guessing the issue was this in the loop?:

if(table.HasValue(emergencyTeams, ply:Team())) then

Fixed:
if(table.HasValue(emergencyTeams, v:Team())) then
