I got everything working now. Boy does it look neat! Thank you all for the help!

Decicus · « **Reply #16 on:** August 31, 2013, 03:33:56 AM »

I completely forgot I about this, sorry man. I had other things on my mind at the time. Although, I'm happy that you got it fixed! What did you do to fix it? (Just out of curiousity)

iSnipeu · « **Reply #17 on:** August 31, 2013, 05:08:11 AM »

You do not need to change default TTT files to get it working, just use a hook.

Code: [Select]

hook.Add("TTTScoreboardColorForPlayer", "RankColours", function( ply )
	if ply:SteamID() == "STEAM_0:0:0000000" then
		return Color( 153, 255, 255 )
	end
end)

Decicus · « **Reply #18 on:** August 31, 2013, 06:53:30 AM »

I don't see how that would work, care to explain?

TTT has hooks you can use so you don't have to edit the gamemode for general things.

Quote from: http://ttt.badking.net/guides/hooks

TTTScoreboardColorForPlayer (ply)
Client
Called to determine what colour a player's name should be on the scoreboard. Hence, it must return a Color object, or return nil (or nothing at all). The "ply" parameter contains a player object, so you can for example check the player's SteamID and give certain people a special colour. Note that TTT also uses this hook for the default colours, so you should return nil for players that you do not want to do anything special with.

Oh yeah, forgot about that hook.

Although, if he wanted that other column with the "Rank" or whatever, one would still need to modify the files.

DJ Mikey · « **Reply #21 on:** August 31, 2013, 03:14:07 PM »

i actually did not need to do much. It wasnt working at first and giving me console errors, i navigated to the lines that were generating the lua errors and simply made some minor edits. (had some extra end's)

As far as making the rank column not over lap, i just got rid of the Super Admin text and edited it to read Owner. Now all group names fit and i dont need to meddle around to much with the script. All i need to do now is add an extra group to get rid of the "rank" group for normal users. Should be easy enough now that i understand how the script works in those lines.

Decicus · « **Reply #22 on:** August 31, 2013, 03:37:05 PM »

That is actually an easy edit, in where the ranks are, under the ones for "admin" and "superadmin". Just add this:

Code: [Select]

        elseif ply:IsUserGroup("user") then
                self.cols[5]:SetText("Player")
                self.cols[5]:SetTextColor(Color(255, 255, 255, 255))

Edit as you would like it to be.

DJ Mikey · « **Reply #23 on:** August 31, 2013, 05:08:14 PM »

i thought for color white it was 0, 0, 0, 255

i have already added the user group to read Guest, i added another line for group "member" players gain member status upon registering to the forums!

actually heres a question

Here is what i got now

Code: [Select]

local namecolor = {
       default = COLOR_WHITE,
       admin = Color(220, 180, 0, 255),
       dev = Color(0, 100, 255, 255),
       test = Color(220, 0, 0, 255),
       member = Color(50, 255, 0, 255)
    };
     
    function GM:TTTScoreboardColorForPlayer(ply)
       if not IsValid(ply) then return namecolor.default end
     
       --ADD NAMECOLOURS HERE--
       if ply:SteamID() == "STEAM_0:0:xxxxxxxxx" then
          return namecolor.dev
       elseif ply:SteamID() == "STEAM_0:0:xxxxxxxx" then
          return namecolor.dev
       elseif ply:SteamID() == "STEAM_0:1:xxxxxxxxxx" then
          return namecolor.dev
       elseif ply:SteamID() == "STEAM_0:1:xxxxxxxxxx" then
          return namecolor.dev
       elseif ply:SteamID() == "STEAM_0:1:xxxxxxxxxx" then
          return namecolor.dev
       elseif ply:SteamID() == "STEAM_0:1:xxxxxxxxxxx" then
          return namecolor.dev
       elseif ply:SteamID() == "STEAM_0:1:xxxxxxxxxx" then
          return namecolor.dev
       elseif ply:IsAdmin() and GetGlobalBool("ttt_highlight_admins", true) then
          return namecolor.admin
       elseif ply:IsUserGroup("superadmin") then
                    return namecolor.test
	   elseif ply:IsUserGroup("member") then
                    return namecolor.member	   
       end
       return namecolor.default
    end

Instead of using each persons steam id for VIP specific colors... could i just do this instead

Code: [Select]

local namecolor = {
       default = COLOR_WHITE,
       admin = Color(220, 180, 0, 255),
       dev = Color(0, 100, 255, 255),
       test = Color(220, 0, 0, 255),
	   member = Color(50, 255, 0, 255)
    };
     
    function GM:TTTScoreboardColorForPlayer(ply)
       if not IsValid(ply) then return namecolor.default end
     
       --ADD NAMECOLOURS HERE--
      if ply:IsUserGroup("vip") then
          return namecolor.dev
       elseif ply:IsAdmin() and GetGlobalBool("ttt_highlight_admins", true) then
          return namecolor.admin
       elseif ply:IsUserGroup("superadmin") then
                    return namecolor.test
	   elseif ply:IsUserGroup("member") then
                    return namecolor.member	   
       end
       return namecolor.default
    end

It would be much easier and i wouldnt need to edit the lua for new VIPs

JamminR · « **Reply #24 on:** August 31, 2013, 05:14:39 PM »

0 = absense of color.
255 = full range of color
000 = black
255255255 = white

Decicus · « **Reply #25 on:** August 31, 2013, 05:15:44 PM »

Basically what JamminR said. It just ends up making sense somehow, and I don't want to mess with logic.

DJ Mikey · « **Reply #26 on:** August 31, 2013, 05:20:36 PM »

darn didnt see you replied, can you look at my previous post i just edited. Thanks! All this lua stuff is making my brain ache, just last week i knew nothing.

Decicus · « **Reply #27 on:** August 31, 2013, 05:23:56 PM »

If I understood it right, all the extra Steam ID's are just VIPs, and those Steam ID's/players are in their own ULX group called "vip".

Then yes, in theory that should work completely fine as long as they're inside that ULX group.

DJ Mikey · « **Reply #28 on:** August 31, 2013, 05:24:42 PM »

fantastic, it just made more sense.

DJ Mikey · « **Reply #29 on:** September 01, 2013, 08:59:26 AM »

I am getting these following errors every time i press TAB. It results in a crash from the server with the text "too many lua errors"

Steam ids were xxx'd out for privacy reasons.

What in this code is causing those errors?

Think i found it
elseif ply:IsUserGroup("user") then
self.cols[5]:SetText("Guest")
Self.cols[5]:SetTextColor(Color(255, 255, 255, 255))

capital S in self.cols.................
testing now.

Yes, nvm.. it was the capital S. How dumb lol
