Can't call static method in static class

I'm working on my own plugin, and I'm new to Rust, so this will help me start out. I am having problems with one of my classes. It's a class that holds Authorization Level based functions, and they are all static. When I say a command and run a function in that class, it throws an object reference error, but not sure why. When I run any method inside AuthLevel class, it throws this error. What I don't understand is that I have other static classes with static methods and variables, that I can call and get/set without any errors. It's just this one class. Any help would be appreciated, and thanks.

Here is the error:

(03:35:54) | ExType: TypeInitializationException

(03:35:55) | Failed to call hook 'CallAction' on plugin 'AdminMenu v0.1.0' (NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object)

(03:35:55) | at (wrapper stelemref) object:stelemref (object,intptr,object)

at Oxide.Plugins.AdminMenu+AuthLevel..cctor () [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0

And here is the code:

Code:

        static class AuthLevel
        {
            static public int[] auth_levels =
            {
                0, //No Access
                1,
                2,
                3 //Full Access
            };            public static string[][] allowedCommandsPerAuthLevel =
            {
                allowedCommandsPerAuthLevel[0] = new string[] { },
                allowedCommandsPerAuthLevel[1] = new string[] {
                    "viewbans", "ban", "kick", "unban" },
                allowedCommandsPerAuthLevel[2] = new string[] {
                    "open", "close", "reload", "airdrop", "vectortp", "listplayers", "listadmins", "viewbans", "kick", "kickall", "ban", "unban", "tp", "spawnanimal",
                    "kill", "mute", "give", "say", "godmode", "noclip", "deathloop", "setmoney", "popup", "turrets", "setfire", "rename", "airdrop", "airstrike", "clearinv",
                    "repairinv", "rotate", "listkits", "addkit", "deletekit", "loadkit", "clonekit", "saveplayerkit"
                },
                allowedCommandsPerAuthLevel[3] = new string[] {
                    "open", "close", "reload", "airdrop", "vectortp", "listplayers", "listadmins", "viewbans", "kick", "kickall", "ban", "unban", "tp", "spawnanimal", "kill",
                    "mute", "give", "say", "godmode", "noclip", "deathloop", "setmoney", "popup", "turrets", "setfire", "rename", "airdrop", "airstrike", "clearinv", "repairinv",
                    "rotate", "listkits", "addkit", "deletekit", "loadkit", "clonekit", "saveplayerkit", "setpermission", "acceptauthrequest", "freezetime", "settime", "setpassword", "setjoinmsg"
                }
            };            public static int returnAuthLevelFromID(string ID)
            {
                return 3;
            }            public static bool commandAllowed(BasePlayer player, string command, string ID)
            {
                int auth_level = returnAuthLevelFromID(ID);                if (allowedCommandsPerAuthLevel[auth_level].ToList().FindIndex(element => element == command) < 0)
                    return false;                return true;
            }            public static bool test()
            {
                return true;
            }
        }

Code:

        [ChatCommand("adminmenu")]
        void CallAction(BasePlayer player, string command, string[] args)
        {
            //if (AuthLevel.returnAuthLevelFromID(player.UserIDString) < 1)
            //return;            /*if (args == null)
                return;            if (args[0] == null)
                return;*/            string arg_command = "test";//args[0];            if (!(AuthLevel.test())) //player, arg_command, "" TODO FIX AuthLevel object reference error
            {
                SendMessage(player, "{0} {1}", "[AdminMenu]: ", "You are not authorized to use this command.");
                return;
            }            switch(command.ToLower())
            {            }            SendMessage(player, "{0} {1}", "[AdminMenu]: ", "The '" + arg_command + "' command has executed successfully.");
            //SendMessage(player, "AdminMenu v{0}. Type -help for a list of commands.", AdminMenuInfoAttribute.Version);
            //Puts("Player {0} has executed command {1}", player.displayName, command);
        }

 

I would not make the class static and instead just the methods inside of it.

 

Alright thanks, will try it and post results.

EDIT: Nope still getting same result in console. Even with a non-static class.
[DOUBLEPOST=1497975902][/DOUBLEPOST]If I have to, I don't mind moving the methods outside of the class, I just like to have neat, organized functions. I tried moving the test method outside of the class, and voila, it worked.

 

Ok so I've narrowed it down to being a problem with how I initialize my allowedCommandsPerAuthLevel array.

EDIT: Can a mod/admin close this. I have figured out what was causing the error. Thanks again Ryan for your help.
