set element data ig

[Lordkrypton]

Hi everyone

I want to create a script who set a rank on every player : guest, player, vip, moderator, admin.

I started to create something, but i have to reconnect everytime for test my script.

Look

exports.scoreboard:addScoreboardColumn('Rank') 
  
function rank() 
        local aname =  getAccountName(source) 
        if isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. aname,  aclGetGroup ( "Admin" ) ) then 
        setElementData ( source , "Rank" , "Admin" ) 
        else 
            if isGuestAccount ( source ) then 
            setElementData ( source , "Rank" , "Guest" ) 
            else 
            setElementData ( source, "Rank", "Player") 
            end 
        end 
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin",root,rank) 
  

If i want to set the element data everytime, not only when player connect, you know what i mean ?

If someone is guest, and he register, i want him to be player without reconnect needed.

Excuse my english

Thank you

How will a player ever have an account when he joins?

onPlayerJoin > "Guest"

onPlayerLogin > "Player/Admin"

onResourceStart, you can loop through all the players and check if they're logged in.

thank you for fast answer !

exports.scoreboard:addScoreboardColumn('Rank') 
  
function onJoin() 
setElementData ( source, "Rank", "Guest" ) 
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin",root,onJoin) 
  
function onLogin() 
local aname =  getAccountName(source) 
    if isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. aname,  aclGetGroup ( "Admin" ) ) then 
    setElementData ( source, "Rank", "Admin" ) 
    elseif isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. aname,  aclGetGroup ( "Moderator" ) ) then 
    setElementData ( source, "Rank", "Moderator" ) 
    elseif isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. aname,  aclGetGroup ( "Vip" ) ) then 
    setElementData ( source, "Rank", "Vip" ) 
    else 
    setElementData ( source, "Rank", "Player" ) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerLogin",root,onJoin) 

I'm a guest on scoreboard, what i did wrong ?

Thank you

getAccountName is used on an account not a player.

function onLogin(_,acc) 
local aname =  getAccountName(acc) 
... 
end 

[Lordkrypton]

exports.scoreboard:addScoreboardColumn('Rank') 
  
function onJoin() 
setElementData ( source, "Rank", "Guest" ) 
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin",root,onJoin) 
  
function onLogin(_,acc) 
local aname =  getAccountName(acc) 
    if isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. aname,  aclGetGroup ( "Admin" ) ) then 
    setElementData ( source, "Rank", "Admin" ) 
    elseif isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. aname,  aclGetGroup ( "Moderator" ) ) then 
    setElementData ( source, "Rank", "Moderator" ) 
    elseif isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. aname,  aclGetGroup ( "Vip" ) ) then 
    setElementData ( source, "Rank", "Vip" ) 
    else 
    setElementData ( source, "Rank", "Player" ) 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerLogin",root,onJoin) 

like that ?

[JR10]

addEventHandler("onPlayerLogin",root,onLogin) 

[Lordkrypton]

lol i'm stupid x)

It's work so.. thank you a lot

How to make "Admin", "VIP", "Moderator" in color.

Like create a variable for exemple : local admin = text("Admin", 255, 0, 255) ?

and after

setElementData ( source, "Rank", admin )

Thank you

[JR10]

If you're drawing this client-side, you can check for the group and set the color based on it.

local r, g, b 
if (rank == 'Admin') then r, g, b = 255, 0, 0 
elseif (rank == 'Player') then r, g, b = 0, 255, 0 
end 

[Lordkrypton]

I create new file client.lua and paste it

    local r, g, b 
        if (rank == 'Admin') then r, g, b = 255, 0, 0 
        elseif (rank == 'Moderator') then r, g, b = 0, 255, 0 
        elseif (rank =='Vip') then r, g, b = 255, 215, 0 
        elseif (rank == 'Guest') then r, g, b = 224, 255, 255    
    end 

But it's didn't work, there is no way to do it server-side like the output chatbox function ?

Thanks

[JR10]

It obviously depends on how you want to output it, if it's chat then yes you can do it server-side.

[Lordkrypton]

no, it's only on scoreboard

[JR10]

You want to color the rank in the scoreboard??

[Lordkrypton]

Yes

[JR10]

I don't think it's possible by default. You'll have to edit the scoreboard for that.
