How to add rank next to names?

[ndellsta]

Hi Again, On My TTT server, how do I add ranks to next to names? Like when you click Tab that scoreboard pops up and there's names. What addon/ULX thingy do I use to put 'Owner' next to my name? And put 'Admin' next to my Admin's names?

I haven't messed with the ranks on my server in a long time, but hopefully this will work for you.

You're going to need two files, if I recall. The files are named sb_main.lua and sb_row.lua, and they'll be located in garrysmod > gamemodes > terrortown > gamemode > vgui (or you'll have to upload them there).

I'll post the code from my server below so you can take a look and edit the files how you see fit. This is not my original code, by the way. Someone else provided the code to their server online and I just changed what I needed.

sb_main.lua

Code: Select all

local surface = surface
local draw = draw
local math = math
local string = string
local vgui = vgui

local GetTranslation = LANG.GetTranslation
local GetPTranslation = LANG.GetParamTranslation

surface.CreateFont("cool_small", {font = "coolvetica",
                                  size = 20,
                                  weight = 400})
surface.CreateFont("cool_large", {font = "coolvetica",
                                  size = 24,
                                  weight = 400})
surface.CreateFont("treb_small", {font = "Trebuchet18",
                                  size = 14,
                                  weight = 700})

   local h = floor(time_left / 3600)
   time_left = time_left - floor(h * 3600)
   local m = floor(time_left / 60)
   time_left = time_left - floor(m * 60)
   local s = floor(time_left)
