Help with this table

[Georges1999]

Hello guys, i need help with this script i made, it's not working as i expect it to. 

The thing is that i was adding an adminlogin on the ChatBox, whenever an admin login's a messages appears. But then i made a table so i add a command to all the admins that don't want that message to appear, i haven't mastered table yet, so i came here asking for help,and also Some hints so i can learn from it. 

Script: 

invisibleAdmins = {}

function adminLoginCommand (player, commandName)
	 if commandName == "invlogin" then
		if isObjectInACLGroup ("user." ..getAccountName( getPlayerAccount(player) ), aclGetGroup ("Admin"))then
		 outputDebugString("Line 7")
		invisibleAdmins[getPlayerSerial(player)] = true
		outputDebugString("Working , true")
		if invisibleAdmins[getPlayerSerial(player)] then
		outputChatBox("[COB]System:You are now invisible!", player, 0, 0, 255)
		else
			 outputChatBox("You are not invisible", player, 255,0,0)
		end
		 if getPlayerSerial(player) == invisibleAdmins[getPlayerSerial(player)] then
			 outputChatBox("You are already invisible", player, 255,0 ,0)
		end
		 elseif isObjectInACLGroup ("user." ..getAccountName( getPlayerAccount(player) ), aclGetGroup ("Console"))then
		 invisibleAdmins = invisibleAdmins[getPlayerSerial(player)]
		 outputDebugString("Line 18")
		outputChatBox("[COB]System:You are now invisible!", player, 0, 0, 255)
		if getPlayerSerial(player) == invisibleAdmins[getPlayerSerial(player)] then
			 outputChatBox("You are already invisible!", player, 255,0 ,0)
		end
		elseif isObjectInACLGroup ("user." ..getAccountName( getPlayerAccount(player) ), aclGetGroup ("SuperModerator"))then
		 outputDebugString("Line 26")
		 invisibleAdmins= invisibleAdmins[getPlayerSerial(player)]
		outputChatBox("[COB]System:You are now invisible!", player, 0, 0, 255)
		if getPlayerSerial(player) == invisibleAdmins[getPlayerSerial(player)] then
			 outputChatBox("You are already invisible!", player, 255,0 ,0)
		end
		elseif isObjectInACLGroup ("user." ..getAccountName( getPlayerAccount(player) ), aclGetGroup ("Moderator"))then
		 outputDebugString("Line 35")
		 invisibleAdmins = invisibleAdmins[getPlayerSerial(player)]
		outputChatBox("[COB]System:You are now invisible!", player, 0, 0, 255)
		if getPlayerSerial(player) == invisibleAdmins[getPlayerSerial(player)] then
			 outputChatBox("You are already invisible!", player, 255,0 ,0)
		end
			else 
				outputChatBox("[COB]System: You cannot use this command!",player, 255, 0 ,0)
		end
	end
end
addCommandHandler("invlogin", adminLoginCommand)

--{Admin}~> <username> logged in as <accountname> 
 function alogin (_ ,theCurrentAccount)
	 if isObjectInACLGroup ("user." ..getAccountName( theCurrentAccount ), aclGetGroup ("Admin"))then
		 outputDebugString("Admin account.")
			 if  getPlayerSerial(source) ~= invisibleAdmins[1] then
				 outputDebugString("Working fine, function 3")
				 outputChatBox("{Dev}~> ".. getPlayerName(source).. " has logged in as ".. getAccountName( theCurrentAccount), root, 0, 255, 0 ,true)
			end
		 elseif isObjectInACLGroup ("user." ..getAccountName( theCurrentAccount ), aclGetGroup ("Console"))then
			 if getPlayerSerial(source) ~= invisibleAdmins[getPlayerSerial(source)]  then
				 outputChatBox("{Admin}~> ".. getPlayerName(source).. " has logged in as ".. getAccountName( theCurrentAccount), root, 255, 0, 0 ,true)
			end
		elseif isObjectInACLGroup ("user." ..getAccountName( theCurrentAccount ), aclGetGroup ("SuperModerator"))then
		 if  getPlayerSerial(source) ~= invisibleAdmins[getPlayerSerial(source)]  then
			 outputChatBox("{SuperModerator}~> ".. getPlayerName(source).. " has logged in as ".. getAccountName( theCurrentAccount), root, 255, 0, 0 ,true)
		 end
		 elseif isObjectInACLGroup ("user." ..getAccountName( theCurrentAccount ), aclGetGroup ("Moderator"))then
			if  getPlayerSerial(source) ~= invisibleAdmins[getPlayerSerial(source)]  then
			outputChatBox("{Mod}~> ".. getPlayerName(source).. " has logged in as ".. getAccountName( theCurrentAccount), root, 0, 0, 255 ,true)
		 end
	end
end
addEventHandler("onPlayerLogin",root, alogin)

invisibleAdmins = {}
iprint(invisibleAdmins) -- table (empty)

 

Interaction with the table:

invisibleAdmins[getPlayerSerial(player)] = true

 

iprint(invisibleAdmins) -- table {["<serial>"] = true}

 

After using this:

invisibleAdmins = invisibleAdmins[getPlayerSerial(player)]

 

iprint(invisibleAdmins) --  true

 

You just deleted your table. (not good)

 

 

Solution:

local isInvisible = invisibleAdmins[getPlayerSerial(player)]

 

iprint(invisibleAdmins) -- table {["<serial>"] = true}
iprint(isInvisible) -- true

IIYAMA thank you for ur explanation. I did understand what u've done.

You made a variable and u saved the table that contains a key with it. And u left the real table without touching it. If i am wrong correct me.
