ULX Groups (Hierarchy)
« on: May 10, 2017, 05:27:50 AM »
Sorry, if this is a re-post, or my question has already been answered - I have scoured the web for days and this is my last resort.

I'm needing help setting up a groups hierarchy of some sort on my server.

The groups list as follows:
owner
manager
superadmin
emerald_admin
diamond_admin
gold_admin
iron_admin
coal_admin
admin
emerald_mod
diamond_mod
gold_mod
iron_mod
coal_mod
mod
emerald_tmod
diamond_tmod
gold_tmod
iron_tmod
coal_tmod
tmod
emerald_trusted
diamond_trusted
gold_trusted
iron_trusted
coal_trusted
trusted
emerald_regular
diamond_regular
gold_regular
iron_regular
coal_regular
regular
emerald_player
diamond_player
gold_player
iron_player
coal_player
player
emerald_user
diamond_user
gold_user
iron_user
coal_user
user

Basically, Owner, Manager, Super Admin then Staff Donator ranks, Staff Ranks, Player Donator ranks, Player ranks.

If theirs some way to give donators perks and extra perms without the mass groups then I'm happy to experiment.

The reason I have the {DONATOR  RANK}_ is so my donation system can assign staff ranks and users ranks without affecting their previous rank.

My question is, how would I set this up. I want users to be able to target all, players to be able to target users and other players etc. etc. (Mods target mods and lower groups)

If that makes any sense. Hope someone can help! :D


*To confirm the donator ranks are; coal, iron, gold, diamond and emerald and the staff ranks are tmod, mod, admin, superadmin, manager and owner. The reason I have donator staff ranks is so staff which donate can keep their donator perks along with their staff rank.*

Thanks,

Normie

Let me put this mildly.
You have too many groups for access management.
You have taken what should be a few groups on a server and turned it into a full time job.
You'll have difficulty ever finding time to enjoy your server because you'll have to find time to manage your server.

That being said, if you wish to continue to have a mess to deal with on an administrative basis, use XGUI to set up inheritance.
Top to bottom group, have each one inherit one below.
Bottom up, have each one not be able to target one above.
Use XGUI to set up inheritance and can_target.
