Can usergroup permissions be evaluated in a plugin?

I'm trying to use this format in a plugin to decide if a condition should be set or not. But, the usergroup permission always returns false. Can you do this in a plugin or is the plugin evaluated before the usergroup permissions?

The plugin's Hook Location is: editor_toolbar_start

The basic plugin is:

PHP Code:

if (($permissions['myhackpermissions'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp['myhackpermissions']['canfoo'])) 
    {

$show['img_bbcode']= true;
} 


Yes, they can!

I needed to add:

PHP Code:

global $permissions; 


to the top of my plugin.
