Some comments to the code.

function et_ClientSpawn calls getXP 9 times.

getXP itself asks the game through the et_gentity_get

 

To make it better, faster, less aggravating for the game store the XP locally and reuse it.

For example:

function et_ClientSpawn( clientNum, revived, teamChange, restoreHealth )
local valXP = getXP(clientNum)
  if valXP >=  lvl1xp and valXP < lvl2xp then	
  setlevel(clientNum,1,lvl1xp)
  elseif valXP >=  lvl2xp and valXP < lvl3xp then	
  setlevel(clientNum,2,lvl2xp)
  elseif valXP >=  lvl3xp and valXP < lvl4xp then	
  setlevel(clientNum,3,lvl3xp)
  elseif valXP >=  lvl4xp and valXP < lvl5xp then	
  setlevel(clientNum,4,lvl4xp)
  elseif valXP >=  lvl5xp then  
  setlevel(clientNum,5,lvl5xp)
  end
end

Only use lua_modules cvar. Don't put anything in lua_allowedModules.

 

set lua_modules "autopromotion.lua"

can u tell me how can i make like this

If people get X number of xps and if that player is X level then only he gets promotion or not

It's in the lua file you need to download and install on the server. To specify your own XP levels you have to edit that file.

Click here to download the file. Then install it on the server, suit your needs by editing it and it's done.

can u tell me how can i make like this

If people get X number of xps and if that player is X level then only he gets promotion or not

it is just X Number of xps if someone gains they will get promotion but i want like

if X number of xps gained and if the player is "X" level then only he will get promotion not just xps

Something I've written ad-hoc to handle your case:

LVL1 = 3
LVL2 = 4
LVL3 = 5
LVL4 = 6

function et_ClientSpawn(clientNum, revived, teamChange, restoreHealth)
local valXP = getXP(clientNum)
local level = et.G_shrubbot_level( clientNum );


if level == LVL1 then
  if valXP >= lvl2xp and valXP < lvl3xp then
    setlevel(clientNum,2,lvl2xp)
  end
elseif level == LVL2 then
  if valXP >= lvl3xp and valXP < lvl4xp then
    setlevel(clientNum,3,lvl3xp)
  end
elseif level == LVL3 then
  if valXP >= lvl4xp and valXP < lvl5xp then
    setlevel(clientNum,4,lvl4xp)
  end
end
end

LVL1 .. LVL4 are levels you want to handle, only for those levels xp check will be done.

The code inside

if level == LVL1 then

is up to you, here is the behavior I would want, which is: check if the xp is of the higher level and if it is, give the higher level.

 

Not tested.
