Trouble setting ULX ranks

[EvilPinkRaccoon]

I just started using ULX and all and the hole group creating and inheritance is a little confusing for me.

Im trying to get a group thats above superadmin (I will be disabling some of the superadmin commands), but apparently if I create a new group that inherits from superadmin every change I do the superadmin group also happens in my new group. The big problem is I dont want superadmins to manage groups or be able to use groupallow, so when I uncheck that from their list it also removes those powers from me.

I tried creating a group that inherits from Users and then checked everything, but using !%(my group) on the target for any other group doesnt really restrain them from targetting me. Can someone give me a little help?

Here is a sample of the /data/ulib/groups.txt file that I have configured

Code: Select all

"owner"	
{
	"allow"	
	{
		"ulx explode"
		"ulx respawn"
		"ulx respawntp"
		"ulx srespawn"
		"ulx srespawntp"
	}
	"inherit_from"	"superadmin"
}
"mod"	
{
	"can_target"	"!%admin"
	"allow"	
	{
		"ulx asay"
		"ulx ban"
		"ulx banid"
		"ulx bring"
		"ulx csay"
		"ulx unban"
		"ulx unfreeze"
		"ulx ungag"
		"ulx ungimp"
		"ulx ungod"
		"ulx unmute"
		"ulx unspec"
		"ulx vote"
		"ulx voteban"
		"ulx votekick"
		"ulx.unban"
		"unban"
		"ulx"	"unban"
		"ulx slap"	"* 0:5"
	}
	"inherit_from"	"donator"
}

I really dont wish to mess with config files too much as I have very little experience.

As far as I know I should be able to create a group that inherits from superadmin and then use RCON to give that group more powers, but last time I tried it it didnt really work and I ended up having to re-install ULX...

You should just be able to open ULX, go the groups tab, and then create a new group. From there you can set who it inherits from, and who it can target. I would follow my template for those two variables.

Yes, yes I know how to create the group and all, but I want one that inherits from superadmin right?

I need it to be higher then super admin meaning I will have to remove some powers from the superadmins. One of these powers include the management of groups, but when I un-tick it from superadmins it also removes it from my custom group.

Ive tried re-adding the group management power to my group through RCON but for some reason it wouldnt work... I just wouldnt get access to the group tab anymore.

[joshh20]

I see what you mean there, I would try allowing super admins to have that power at first, and then once the higher ranking group has inherited it, remove it from super admin. If you are in the highest group on the server, you should also be able to give a rank a group without needing inheritance, as I know I have done that before.
