I have to restart the server every time i add a whitelist

[NitchgamingStudios]

i renamed the table to serverwhitelist cus my ban table is called whitelist. I changed the server\server.lua to this

Whitelist = {}

-- Check if player is whitelisted
AddEventHandler('playerConnecting', function(name, setCallback, deferrals)
    deferrals.defer()

    local source = source

    deferrals.update(_U('whitelist_check'))

    Citizen.Wait(300)

    local Identifiers = GetPlayerIdentifiers(source)
    
    if not has_value(Whitelist, Identifiers[1]) and not has_value(Whitelist, Identifiers[2]) then
        deferrals.done(_U('not_whitelisted'))
        CancelEvent()
        return
    else
        deferrals.done()
    end
end)

-- Add Whitelist Command
