Solved Resetting permissions

So, whilst working on permissions, I was able to set them when a player joins with the following code:

PHP:

foreach(RankData::PERMISSIONS[$this->getRank()] as $permissions){
            $this->attachment = $this->addAttachment(Loader::getInstance(), $permissions, true);
        }

however, when I update the players rank via mysql, their permissions don't reset and I'm not too sure how to do so. What solutions do y'all recommend?

 

Do you update your arrays after updating your mysql database? If no that would be the reason

 

Instead of adding an attachment, check if the permission is in the array. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
That's an idea.

PHP:

    // I'm guessing you are doing this in player class.
    public function hasPermission(string $permission): bool {
        $permissions = RankData::PERMISSIONS[$this->getRank()];
        if(in_array($permission, $permissions)) {
            return true;
        }
        return parent::hasPermission($permission);
    }


And also, kind of off topic, I didn't know you were still in this community, Drew.

 

How you want the permission to reset? Remove the permissions of previous rank?

PHP:

//add
foreach(RankData::PERMISSIONS[$this->getRank()] as $permissions){
            $this->attachments[] = $this->addAttachment(Loader::getInstance(), $permissions, true);
        }
//remove
foreach($this->attachments as $a)
$this->removeAttachment($a);

 

Yes, I update the arrays.

 

Not what I would prefer to do, and lol

 

I did try that, but the only way it works is if I use a have a delayed task to wait for the mysql task to update, which I'd rather not want to wait for.

 

Solved it but refreshing permissions when the async task is completed, I'm officially dumb lol

 

Reset permissions as in attachmen->clearPermissions()?

 

I think it should be in reverse

PHP:

$this->attachments = [];
foreach(RankData::PERMISSIONS[$this->getRank()] as $permission){
    $this->attachments[] = $this->addAttachment(Loader::getInstance(), $permission, true);
}
