How would you find a player's group rank via scripting?
For example if I wanted a gear that group staff would get but normal members won't, how would I use Lua to differentiate between a staff member and a normal member?

I already know I would use IsInGroup to see that the player IS in the group, but how would I find a specific rank? SPBOnion 30 — 7y

Another question: How could I do this with spawns, like a certain rank spawns at a certain SpawnLocation? SPBOnion 30 — 7y

GetRankInGroup() returns the number rank of the player it's called on. It's between 0 and 255.
if player:GetRankInGroup(groupId) > 5 then --checks if player is above rank 5
GetRoleInGroup will return the name of the player's rank, or "Guest" if they're not in the group.
if player:GetRoleInGroup(groupIs) == "Knight" then --checks if their rank is knight

You can use the GetRankInGroup to find a players rank in a group and decide what happens off of that

To get the actual title of the rank, use GetRoleInGroup. M39a9am3R 3210 — 7y
