how would I block a certain menu option from someone based on admin flag without blocking the entire menu section for him?

lets say that the guy has a weapon spawn menu under his admin menu and option five in that menu allows him to spawn a grenade launcher.
how can I change so option five only works with root admins?

I have tried the admin overrides but it dosn't quite work. I can block the entire menu in admin overrides with "sm_spawn_weapons" "z" , but then he won't be able to spawn weapons at all. I also tried "sm_spawn_weapons grenade_launcher" "z" in the admin overrides but that dosn't remove the option in the menu and he is still able to spawn grenade launchers.

so what do I do next? I don't want the grenade launcher option from the menu gone, just want it to work with a higher admin flag (root)

What plugin ? And have you made menu in adminmenu_custom.txt or is it from plugin ?

Admin overrides work but not way you want.
sm_spawn_weapons is just admin command and you just give parameters (grenade_launcher).

If you want separate this one weapon from all weapons, need edit plugin.

I have modified it for L4D2, adding all the missing weapons etc but the source is still identical to the first post.

so you are saying that I can't keep the grenade launcher in the weapon menu with all the other weapons, and still hide it from other admins? that I have to edit the source and create a new menu for just the grenade launcher and add the z flag to it? I kinda wanted it to be in the same menu as all the other weapons

You could edit on DisplayWeaponsMenu(client) callback.
When it create menu items

something like this using CheckCommandAccess

Spoiler

PHP Code:

DisplayWeaponsMenu(client)
{
    if (!IsClientInGame(client) || IsClientInKickQueue(client))
        return;
    
    new Handle:menu = CreateMenu(WeaponsSpawnHandler);
    SetMenuTitle(menu, "Spawn Weapons:");
    AddMenuItem(menu, "pistol", "Pistol");
    AddMenuItem(menu, "smg", "Uzi");
    AddMenuItem(menu, "pumpshotgun", "Shotgun");
    AddMenuItem(menu, "rifle", "M16");
    AddMenuItem(menu, "hunting_rifle", "Hunting Rifle");
    AddMenuItem(menu, "autoshotgun", "Autoshotgun");
    AddMenuItem(menu, "ammo", "Ammo");
    AddMenuItem(menu, "molotov", "Molotov");
    AddMenuItem(menu, "pipe_bomb", "Pipebomb");
    AddMenuItem(menu, "gascan", "Gas Can");
    AddMenuItem(menu, "propanetank", "Propane Tank");
    if(CheckCommandAccess(client, "sm_oxygentank_access", ADMFLAG_SLAY))
    {
        AddMenuItem(menu, "oxygentank", "Oxygen Tank");
    }
    SetMenuExitButton(menu, true);
    DisplayMenu(menu, client, MENU_TIME_FOREVER);
} 


And in this example, you can override separatelly with admin access "sm_oxygentank_access"
