Checking for several flags

I had to do a check for three flags. I tried if(get_user_flags(id) & ADMIN_LEVEL_F | ADMIN_LEVEL_G | ADMIN_LEVEL_H), but everybody would pass this one. Should "|" be a comma or "&&"? Of course I also thought of three if statements, but that's obviously uneficient. How should I do it?

Re: Checking for several flags

PHP Code:


		
			
if(get_user_flags(id) & ADMIN_LEVEL_F && ADMIN_LEVEL_G && ADMID_LEVEL_H)
{
     //do stuff
}

try this

That's wrong shiina

PHP Code:


		
			
const FlagsNeeded = ADMIN_LEVEL_F | ADMIN_LEVEL_G | ADMID_LEVEL_H;

if( ( get_user_flags(id) & FlagsNeeded ) == FlagsNeeded )
{
     //do stuff
}

It does not work fine for you, you are just not testing the condition correctly. Your method will always return true as long as the player has the ADMIN_LEVEL_F flag. The other flags you are using conditional AND (&&) on which just checks if they are non-zero, which is always true. I see you are at 1% at learning Pawn. Please don't try to help others if you don't know how to script yourself.

Re: Checking for several flags

You can use read_flags too.

OP: read_flags( "efg" ) instead of ( FLAG | FLAG | FLAG ) would only be useful if you wanted to set admin flag permissions with a cvar/config/string of some sort. If the flags are permanent/hard-coded, use what I posted above.

Re: Checking for several flags

There's also the has_flag() stock. Essentially it encapsulates Bugsy's method.

Alternately, if you want them to have all the flags specified:
