How can I iterate a table?
see i asked a friend why my holo script wasn't working, and he said because on line 5 I used gidranks instead of an integer, and he said in order to fix it I would need to iterate through a table, I asked how and he never responded, so I am asking you guys, Any help would be appreciated!
Here is the script.
local admins ={"EmperorVolvax"} -- What Users(Needs to be EXACT)
local gid = 1173040 -- What group is needed
local gidranks = {255,105,104,103,102,101} -- What Ranks you want to be used
--Dont Mess with the Below --
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(Player)
if Player:GetRankInGroup(gid) == gidranks then
for _,v in pairs(admins)do
Player.Chatted:connect(function(msg)
if msg == "load sft" then
x = game.ServerStorage.sft:Clone()-- Change sft to the map in serverstorage
if game.ServerStorage.sft.Name == "sft" then
local h = Instance.new("Hint")
h.Parent = game.Workspace
h.Text = "Loading Facility:// SwordFight"
wait(2)
h:Destroy()
x.Parent = game.Workspace
end
end
end)
end
end
end)

== means "is equal to", but a better description might be "is the same as".
GetRankInGroup's name suggests it returns a rank. But gidranks is a list of a ranks.
No rank is the same as a list of a ranks -- they aren't the same sort of thing.
I'm assuming what you wanted to check is "if gidranks contains this rank".
Sadly Lua doesn't have "contains" built in. But it's really easy to write. You just make a for loop go over everything in the table with pairs, and return true if the thing in the table is the thing you're looking for
function contains(list, element)
for _, value in pairs(list) do
if value == element then
return true
end
end
end
You can then just ask if contains(gidrank, Player:GetRankInGroup(gid)) then to get exactly that.
