Tracks
LuckPerms has it's own (somewhat) unique track system, although the majority of other permissions plugins also have something similar.
Think of a Track as a "ladder" or "promotion route".
Note that tracks act only as a means for easy promotion and demotion of users, and do not influence inheritance.
Example 1 🔗
I might have a track called "staff". This track would consist the groups:
default ➡️ helper ➡️ mod ➡️ admin
I can then use this track to promote or demote users.
For example, if "Notch" was in the helper group, and I wanted to make him mod, I would run:
/luckperms user Notch promote staff
Example 2 🔗
I might have another track for donators, consisting of:
default ➡️ iron ➡️ gold ➡️ diamond
I could then promote users along this track each time they were to purchase a "rank upgrade", or whatever.
/luckperms user Luck promote donator
To promote someone backwards on a track, you just use the demote command.
Creating a Track 🔗
Just run /luckperms createtrack <name>
, followed by /luckperms track <name> append <group>
to add each of the groups. There are other commands available to help edit the track, which you can find on the Command Usage page.
