Using a static Ass value in the Privilege Level value of a component?

I solved this by ignoring the Privilege Level and setting the Disable condition to `NOT GetPriv(?Privilege?, 0)` because clearly that makes sense.

However, I have a similar issue, where I can't use this when passing ?Privilege? into a Genie's params and using the same GetPriv function inside the genie components??

In the runtime I see the dot matrix overlay and there are no privilege restrictions... I wish I knew what the error was that the dots are telling me...

To assign a constant you have to put the value between single quotes:

Ass(-2, "DeviceName", "'" + sDeviceName + "'", 0);
Ass(-2, "Privilege", "'" + IntToStr(iPrivilege) + "'", 0);

And if it still not works as expected, you might want to make sure the object treats the assignment as an integer by using:

?INT Privilege? instead of ?Privilege?

Also, the word "privilege" and/or "priv" might be reserved words, so you could try using something else.
