Add user to group via lua

[BigBrainAFK]

Hello,

I'm working on a TTT server and I have the problem that i don't know how to add a user in ulx to a usergroup via lua script say for example like in an achievement system or something like that.

As far as I know it doesn't work via ply:SetUserGroup so how should i do it then?


P.S.: It would be cool if it says "(Someone) added *INSERT NAME HERE* to *INSERT GROUP HERE*" like if a real admin adds the player

Why don't you just run the already existing command (ulx adduser) using RunConsoleCommand()?

I kind of remember that I saw a thread already talking about RunConsoleCommand and how it don't work with ULX but i think i give it a try.

RunConsoleCommand("ulx", "adduser", target_ply, group)

RunConsoleCommand("ulx", "adduser", target_ply, group)

target_ply:Nick() *

of, if you want to just bypass that entirely, you can go straight to UCL.

ULib.ucl.addUser( target_ply:SteamID(), nil, nil, group )

Yes indeed.
In theory, you wouldn't even need ULX installed. Only ULib.
See our ULib docs page, linked from the sticky post(s) at front of the Dev corner forum area.

How is this??? If ULX is not installed how would the person be in a group???

Because ULX uses ULib's group system, and you can add users to ULib using Lua and not just ULX.
