How to check if the user is a star creator?

LambHubGoBrrrrr · May 17, 2022, 10:30am

Hello everyone! I am trying to detect if the person joining the game is a star creator! I have not found any way to detect if the user is a star creator so I came here to ask for some help!

Just see if they’re a member of the Star Creator group using GetRankInGroup.

Check if they are in this group:

This is how they do it for the CoreGui when they determine whether to grant someone an admin/intern/star badge in game:

github.com

Roblox/Core-Scripts/blob/master/CoreScriptsRoot/Modules/PlayerPermissionsModule.lua

local PlayerPermissionsModule = {}

local function HasRankInGroupFunctionFactory(groupId, requiredRank)
	local hasRankCache = {}
	assert(type(requiredRank) == "number", "requiredRank must be a number")
	return function(player)
		if player and player.UserId > 0 then
			if hasRankCache[player.UserId] == nil then
				local hasRank = false
				pcall(function()
					hasRank = player:GetRankInGroup(groupId) >= requiredRank
				end)
				hasRankCache[player.UserId] = hasRank
			end
			return hasRankCache[player.UserId]
		end
		return false
	end
end

use groupservice thingy

local GroupId = 4199740

local GroupService = game:GetService("GroupService")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
	local Info = GroupService:GetGroupsAsync(Player.UserId)
	
	for i, Groups in pairs(Info) do
		print(Groups.Id) -- for testing
		if Groups.Id == GroupId then -- Player is in group
			print("A dude from the star program has joined on the game!11 bruh my pinky hurts i cant hold the shift key : " .. Player.Name)
		end
	end
end)
