ofc. u need to change groups id as u want or add them as u want
long code but easy for u to edit
i didn't use v or k or i , etc xD

local group = getPlayerGroupId(cid)
local cid = getPlayerByName(name)

function onThink(interval, lastExecution)
    for _, name in ipairs(getOnlinePlayers()) do
        if group == 1 then
            doSendAnimatedText(getPlayerPosition(cid), "Player", TEXTCOLOR_RED)
        elseif group == 2 then
            doSendAnimatedText(getPlayerPosition(cid), "Tutor", TEXTCOLOR_RED)
        elseif group == 3 then
            doSendAnimatedText(getPlayerPosition(cid), "Senior Tutor", TEXTCOLOR_RED)
        elseif group == 4 then
            doSendAnimatedText(getPlayerPosition(cid), "Game Master", TEXTCOLOR_RED)
        elseif group == 5 then
            doSendAnimatedText(getPlayerPosition(cid), "Community Manager", TEXTCOLOR_RED)
        elseif group == 6 then
            doSendAnimatedText(getPlayerPosition(cid), "Administrator", TEXTCOLOR_RED)                   
        end
    end
return true
end

0.o
k, v & i are temporary variables just like _ and name are.
That code doesn't seem like it does anything

 

[Jotran]

Edit: I like to make it pretty

local player = { "Player", "Tutor", "Senior Tutor", "Game Master", "Community Manager", "Administrator" }
local color = {
    TEXTCOLOR_RED, -- player
    TEXTCOLOR_RED, -- tutor
    TEXTCOLOR_RED, -- senior tutor
    TEXTCOLOR_RED, -- game master
    TEXTCOLOR_RED, -- community manager
    TEXTCOLOR_RED -- administrator
}

function onThink(cid, interval)
    local playersOnline = getPlayersOnline()
    for _, cid in ipairs(playersOnline) do
        for i = 1, #player do
            if getPlayerGroupId(cid) == i then
                doSendAnimatedText(getPlayerPosition(cid), player[i], color[i])
            end
        end
    end
    return true
end

local player = { "Player", "Tutor", "Senior Tutor", "Game Master", "Community Manager", "Administrator"}
local color = {
    TEXTCOLOR_RED -- player
    TEXTCOLOR_RED -- tutor
    TEXTCOLOR_RED -- senior tutor
    TEXTCOLOR_RED -- game master
    TEXTCOLOR_RED -- community manager
    TEXTCOLOR_RED -- administrator
}

function onThink(cid, interval)
    for _, cid in ipairs(getPlayersOnline()) do
       for i = 1, #player do
            if getPlayerGroupId(cid) == i then
                doSendAnimatedText(getPlayerPosition(cid), player[i], color[i])
            end
      end
    end
    return true

I get no likes

before u talk i already do that

I would rather use an onLogin script than global event.

local config = {
    [2] = {name = "Tutor", color = TEXTCOLOR_RED, magicEffect = CONST_ME_SOUND_YELLOW},
    [3] = {name = "Senior Tutor", color = TEXTCOLOR_RED, magicEffect = CONST_ME_SOUND_YELLOW}
}

local function sendHelperEffect(cid)
    if not isPlayer(cid) then
        return
    end

    local group = config[getPlayerGroupId(cid)]
    if not group then
        return
    end

    doSendAnimatedText(getPlayerPosition(cid), group.name, group.color)
    doSendMagicEffect(getPlayerPosition(cid), group.magicEffect)
    addEvent(sendHelperEffect, 5000, cid)
end

function onLogin(cid)
    sendHelperEffect(cid)
    return true
end

Quick question @Ninja why would you use addEvent as opposed to onThink, don't they both use threads?
What makes one better over the other?

 

[Ninja]

The addEvent is better in this case because it does not iterate through getOnlinePlayers() every time it's executed, and will stop if the conditions are not met.

 

[Wason]

Relax guys
its already fixed im very thanks to all staff members

 

[Jotran]

Ahh oke thank you @Ninja
