Changing The Default DarkRP Job

What does changing the default DarkRP job do?

Changing the default DarkRP job means that when a player initially connects to your server, they won’t be placed in the Citizen job by default, they will be placed in the job you specified. This is useful for servers that provide an alternative type of roleplay such as StarwarsRP and MilitaryRP.

In addition to this, when a player is demoted they will be reverted back to this job.

Method (Game Panel)

  1. Navigate to the Game Panel and proceed to login.

  2. Click on Game Services button and if prompted select the server you would like to change the default DarkRP job of.

  5. Scroll down to the line containing GAMEMODE.DefaultTeam = TEAM_CITIZEN.

  6. By default, the GAMEMODE.DefaultTeam variable will be defined as TEAM_CITIZEN, in order to change the default job, you must replace TEAM_CITIZEN with the desired default job’s team, for example TEAM_HEXANE.

  7. Once you have done this, click the Save button in the navigation bar.

  8. Navigate back to the Game Panel’s homepage and proceed to click the Restart button.
