How to store getElementPosition in PlayerData Table?

[Archinet]

Hello guys of this excelent forum, im trying to get the GetElementPosition of my player inside a table PlayerData to store it after in a database, but no works, im not expert in Lua really, but i try to make it works, i search on the forum about this but i find nothing, i hope someone can help.

 

function savePlayer()
	if(isElement(source)) then
		if(getElementData(source, "Logueado") == false) then
			return true
		end
   	
   
	    local playerData = {

	    	x = getElementPosition(source).x, -- Here "Attempt to index a numbe value.
	    	y = getElementPosition(source).y,
	    	z = getElementPosition(source).z,
	    	rx = getElementRotation(source).rx,
	    	ry = getElementRotation(source).ry,
	    	rz = getElementRotation(source).rz,
	    	dinero = getPlayerMoney(source),
	    	trabajo = getElementData(source, "trabajo"),
	    	repartidor_nivel = getElementData(source, "repartidor_nivel"),
	    	repartidor_puntos = getElementData(source, "repartidor_puntos")
    	}

   		for k,v in ipairs(playerData) do

   			print(k.." - "..v)

   		end
	end
end
addEventHandler("onPlayerQuit", getRootElement(), savePlayer)

local x, y, z =  getElementPosition(source)

local xr, yr, zr = getElementRotation(source)

local playerData = {x=x, y=y, z=z, xr=xr, yr=yr, zr=zr}

Those 2 functions do not return a table, but multiple variables.

Thanks so much @IIYAMA is good way! what you think about this method? is bad practice? i still learning

 

function pack(...)
	return {...}
end

pos = pack(getElementPosition(source))
  
  
playerData = {
    
	x = pos[1],
    y = pos[2],
    z = pos[3]
}

Creating a new table is a slower method, but nothing to worry about. You wouldn't notice the difference with the computers these days.

 

You didn't need the pack function to do this:

local pos = {getElementPosition(source)}

But if it helps you with readability, then why not a pack function?

I din't know that i can store with this method

Thanks for help me
