Title: ply:IsDonator?
Post by: eric1555 on February 21, 2011, 07:53:53 AM

When I have custom groups like "donator" how would I define them, like ply:IsSuperAdmin()?
Would it be   "ply:Isdonator()" or ply:IsUserGroupdonator()

If my memory isn't failing me, you should be doing this:

if ( ply:GetUserGroup() == "donator" ) then

Stickly Man is correct, the Is*Admin() functions are provided for convenience, ply:GetUserGroup() == "*admin" is the same thing.

ply:IsUserGroup("donator")


^works too.. and is cleaner than ply:GetUserGroup() == "donator" IMO.



edit... but I think that requres ULib be installed... hmm.. <3 ULib..

GetUserGroup is actually a 'ULib only' function, so, yeah, IsUserGroup is your standard "no ULib needed but just isn't as cool as hanging out with cool kids" code.
