I’ve built a custom playerlist and now I want to make it so I can differentiate normal players versus staff members. How would I go about this?
This is what I’ve already done:
local STAFF_MEMBERS = {
[1645028151] = true,
[-1] = true
}
How would I make it to check that if these people have joined the game, they get the staff icon next to their name using StaffIcon.Visible?
You can use table.Find for this.
For example:
local staffMembers = {"name1", "name2", "name3"}
staffMember = table.find(staffMembers, "game.Players.LocalPlayer.Name")
if staffMember then
print("This user is a staff member")
end
local STAFF_MEMBERS = {
[1645028151] = true,
[-1] = true
}
local StaffIcon = -- Path to staff icon
game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
if STAFF_MEMBERS[Player.UserId] then
StaffIcon.Visible = true
end
end)
Okay so small problem, the localscript clones the frame named “Example” into the main frame and then renames “Example” to the Player’s name. How would I go about cloning it in the player’s frame?
Current full script?
local Teams = game:GetService("Teams")
local template = script.Example
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local playere = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local playerList = script.Parent.ScrollingFrame
local STAFF_MEMBERS = {
[1645028151] = true,
[-1] = true
}
local StaffIcon = script.Example.player.StaffIcon
game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
if STAFF_MEMBERS[Player.UserId] then
StaffIcon.Visible = true
end
end)
function clearlist()
for _,item in pairs(playerList:GetChildren()) do
if item:IsA("TextLabel") then
item:Destroy()
end
end
end
for _, team in ipairs(Teams:GetTeams()) do
local frame = template:Clone()
frame.Name = team.Name
frame.LayoutOrder = #playerList:GetChildren()
end
function FillList()
for _,player in ipairs(Players:GetChildren()) do
if not playerList:FindFirstChild(player.Name) then
local frame = template:Clone()
frame.Name = player.Name
frame.player.Text = player.Name
frame.Parent = playerList
frame.LayoutOrder = playerList[player.Team.Name].LayoutOrder + 1
for _, object in pairs(playerList:GetChildren()) do
if object:IsA("Frame") and object.LayoutOrder >= frame.LayoutOrder and object ~= frame then
end
end
player:GetPropertyChangedSignal("TeamColor"):Connect(function()
frame.LayoutOrder = playerList[player.Team.Name].LayoutOrder + 1
end)
end
end
end
local function update()
for i, team in pairs(Teams:GetTeams()) do
if #team:GetPlayers() == 0 then
print(string.format("There are no players on the %s team.",team.Name))
playerList[team.Name].Visible = false
elseif #team:GetPlayers() > 0 then
print(string.format("There are players on the %s team.",team.Name))
playerList[team.Name].Visible = true
end
end
end
update()
FillList()
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(FillList)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
if playerList:FindFirstChild(player.Name) then
playerList:FindFirstChild(player.Name):Destroy()
end
end)
for i, team in pairs(Teams:GetTeams()) do
team.PlayerAdded:Connect(update)
team.PlayerRemoved:Connect(update)
end
playerName = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Name
game.Players[playerName]
So like this?
local StaffIcon = script.Parent.ScrollingFrame.playerName
Apologies, could you explain again what you want the script to do for staff members? I didn’t quite understand, also, make sure to be precise about every little detail.
So, for NON Staff members, I want their playerlist name to display normally.
But, to differentiate between normal players and Staff Members, I want the staff’s playerlist name to display with a sheild next to it like this, or any icon.
Where is the staff icon located?
Since it is located inside the player text lablel , the position is 0,0, 0,0
All players have the staff icon inside them, correct? Just invisible.
Correct

local frame = template:Clone()
frame.Name = player.Name
frame.player.Text = player.Name
frame.Parent = playerList
if STAFF_MEMBERS[Player.UserId] then
frame.player.Stafficon.Visible = true
end
Oh, I mean to parent it to the player.
local frame = template:Clone()
frame.Parent = game.Players[playerName].PlayerGui.ScreenGui.ScrollingFrame
I think that would work.
You can also completely get rid of this.
Pretty sure that’s not at all what they want, but ok.
Nevermind actually, I forgot the script was inside the gui already
the part Player in Player.UserId is underlined in orange.
