Can someone help me with an admin system that has different permissions such as one for GM, Host, TM,Admin, Owner and each permission will have a certain amount of available verbs?

I've tried doing this plenty of times but none of it seemed to work out for me.

What is the point in having all of those?

Set different paths for the verbs such as <code>client/Admin/verb</code>, <code>client/Host/verb</code> and <code>client/Owner/verb</code>. When you add the verbs, add all of the verbs that the player should receive based on their position.

Separate paths for each rank(?).

client
    
    Owner/verb
        
        cause_havoc()
    
    Host/verb
        
        mass_kill()
    
    Moderator/verb
        
        spawn_nukes()


Create <code>lists</code> that contain the keys of staff members.

var/list
    
    owner = list("neimo")
    
    moderators = list("a key", "another key", "more keys")


Have a <code>proc</code> that checks the list of staff.

client
    
    proc
        
        check_staff()
            
            if(owners.Find(ckey))
                
                verbs += typesof("/client/Owner/verb", "/client/Host/verb", "/client/Moderator/verb")
            
            else if(ckey == lowertext(world.host))
                
                verbs += typesof("/client/Host/verb")
            
            else if(moderators.Find(ckey))
                
                verbs += typesof("/client/Moderator/verb")


If you do not understand the basics of path trees then you should read over the <code>guide.</code>

Because you're copy/pasting the code. Learn how to code properly instead.

no need to be a douche to the guy... if you get indention errors, backspace to the line before, and then just press enter and tab it to where its supposed to be

In response to Pkmaster218
<code>cause_havoc()</code> would be a verb here, so figure it out.

owners.Find: undefined var

In response to Pkmaster218
The list name is <code>owner</code>, not <code>owners</code>. My apologies.

For the <code>invisibility</code> variables, add <code>usr.</code> because the client doesn't have that variable.

Dec 10 2011, 3:12 pm

<code>usr.invisibility = blah</code> is how it should be done.

usr.invisibility = !invisibility

It's the truth Leoinpharoh, besides it's constructive criticism. The kid needs it sadly I must admit.

@pk

Please do us all a favor, and read the guide again and again. I joined late 05 early 06 of BYOND. You can not just jump into BYOND and make a game. If you are going to copy and paste code with out showing us you attempted to do it yourself; I feel you do not deserve are help and are work for free. If you were truly learning the DM language you wouldn't be focusing on GM/admin/owner verbs/etc.. That should be set way on the back burner if your game even requires it. There is many other ways to add stuff to prevent "bad people" from doing stuff in your game. Me personally admin is useless, because you just manual build in functions and just manual add the key if the person has committed an act that is against the rules. None the less I'm done ranting about this. I just need to alleviate myself some stress.

Copy paste the whole code again, but before the code put

<dm.> but without the full stop. It will put your code in the
right format for us to see it.
