Should work.
If you have a table of classes like:
[lua]
CLASSES = {}
CLASSES[1] = {Name = “Scout”, Weapons = {“weapon_smg1”, “weapon_pistol”}}
CLASSES[2] = {Name = “Heavy”, Weapons = {“weapon_ar2”, “weapon_rpg”}}
[/lua]
Then just do this when you are adding buttons to the menu:
[lua]
for k,v in pairs(CLASSES) do
self:AddButton(v.Name)
end
[/lua]
You will have to adjust the server side console command though.
That was fast! I’ll try that and report back.
