Script problem

[Volltron]

I wanted to make a script so that admins can chat between them 

function adminMessage(thePlayer, cmd, ...)
    local message = table.concat ( { ... }, " " );
    local name = getPlayerName(thePlayer)
    local accName = getAccountName ( getPlayerAccount ( thePlayer ) )
    local tableadmin = { }     
        if (isObjectInACLGroup ("user."..accName, aclGetGroup ( "Admin" ) )) then
            table.insert(tableadmin,thePlayer)
                for i,admins in ipairs(tableadmin) do
                outputChatBox("#04B486[ADMIN-CHAT]"..name..": #FFFFFF"..message, admins, 255, 255, 255, true)
                end
        end
end
addCommandHandler("adminchat",  adminMessage)
     

I would really apreciate it if someone could help me

You are on the right track, except that you never actually loop through the admins, you just loop through a table that has only 1 element in it, the user that executed the command.

function adminMessage(thePlayer, cmd, ...)
	local message = table.concat ( { ... }, " " );
	local name = getPlayerName(thePlayer)
	local accName = getAccountName ( getPlayerAccount ( thePlayer ) )
	for k, adm in ipairs(getElementsByType("player")) do
    	local acc = getAccountName ( getPlayerAccount ( adm ) )
    		if isObjectInACLGroup ("user."..acc, aclGetGroup ( "Admin" ) ) then
    			outputChatBox("#04B486[ADMIN-CHAT]"..name..": #FFFFFF"..message, adm, 255, 255, 255, true)
     		end
   	end
end
addCommandHandler("adminchat",  adminMessage)

use isGuestAccount to avoid bugs

Thanks, it works. The only problem is that anyone can write but only the admin sees what you write

Add this after accName = ...

if not isObjectInACLGroup ("user."..accName, aclGetGroup ( "Admin" ) ) then return end
