Restrict Entity/SWEP for ULX 'Donator' Rank?
« on: March 21, 2013, 12:30:55 PM »
Hey,
I need a code that will restrict some entities: WAC Aircraft, SCars
and some SWeps: CSS Realistic, Murderthon 9K
To the ULX Rank 'Donator'. I'm making an auto-donation system and this is important.
Thank you!

You could add this code to the entities and sweps to restrict them to donators.

Code: [Select]
if not ply:IsUserGroup("donator") then
     return
end

You might also want to put some kind of message before the return informing the player that only donators are allowed to spawn those things.

Thanks. I just set 'Donator' to inherit from Admin, and than disallowed all admin commands from donator in the groups.cfg.

Samg, that's really not a good idea.
Though perhaps they won't be able to run ULX admin commands, Gmod will see them as an admin, which means any gamemode/mod/whatever that uses IsAdmin to check a player for any special access, they will have it.

Well, I know that, but at the moment it's my only option.
I need Donators to have access to admin only sweps and vehicles.

Yes, Edit the spawn code with the snip I gave you earlier. Find where it says IsAdmin and add the above code in as well.

Also, take a look at the SWEP hooks. I assume you are running a gamemode that is based on Sandbox.
