Here's a small include to help organize your players into groups.

Features:

• Quickly organize players into different groups
• Specify values for players[ ].integers[ ], .booleans[ ], .strings[ ]
• Values for the above fields can be set for an entire group or individually (individual settings override script settings)
• Never have to write another DeclarePlayers!

To add it to a script, include groups.simba, then go to the built in DeclarePlayers and remove HowManyPlayers, NumberOfPlayers(), and Players[ ].____ and add thisScript := 'GroupName'; and SmartzDeclarePlayers;

It reads configuration information from const accountFile; here's a sample config:

; Players section
[Villavu]
name = Villavu
pass = SimbaIsCool
nick = lla

[Player2IsCool]
name = Player2 Is Cool
pass = OhYeahhh
nick = lay
pin = 2345
Integers5 = 40
Integers6 = 99
Integers7 = 1


; Groups section
[Ratinator1]
0 = Villavu
1 = Player2IsCool

Integers2 = 20
Integers5 = 40
Integers6 = 99
Integers14 = 15
Integers15 = 6
Booleans0 = True
Booleans1 = True

groups.simba

GEEZUS!

You saved my trouble ty!!!

No problem, I'm glad someone else can get some use out of it!

Why do you save "Specify values for players[ ].integers[ ], .booleans[ ], .strings[ ]"? That differs for each script

You can set values for the integers, strings, and booleans array on a player level or on a script level. Player settings override script settings.

For example: I'm running Ratinator and I usually want my players to level to 40-60-20, so I set script wide values for this in the integers array. However, if I decide I want one player to have extra high defense, I can set that player's integers without disrupting the rest of my players.
