Whats the problem ?

addCommandHandler( "steal",  
    function( thePlayer, commandName, otherPlayer, amount ) 
        local amount = math.random(1,500) 
        local chance = math.random(1,3) 
        if otherPlayer and amount and math.ceil( amount ) == amount and amount > 0 then          
        if getElementModel(thePlayer) == 29 then 
        local other = getPlayerFromNick( otherPlayer ) 
            if other then 
                if player ~= other then 
            local x, y, z = getElementPosition( thePlayer ) 
            local x2, y2, z2 = getElementPosition( other ) 
            if(getDistanceBetweenPoints3D( x, y, z, x2, y2, z2 ) < 5) then 
            if(chance == 3) then 
            takePlayerMoney( other, amount ) 
            givePlayerMoney( thePlayer, amount ) 
            outputChatBox( "" .. getPlayerName ( thePlayer ) .. " stole $" .. amount .. " from you.", other, 255, 0, 0 ) 
                        outputChatBox( "You stole $" .. amount .. " from " .. name .. ". ", thePlayer, 0, 255, 0 ) 
            else outputChatBox( "" .. name .. " escaped.", thePlayer, 255, 0, 0 ) 
            end 
            else outputChatBox( "" .. name .. " noticed that you tried to steal money.", thePlayer, 255, 0, 0 ) 
            outputChatBox( "" .. getPlayerName ( thePlayer ) .. " tried to steal money from you, but failed.", other, 255, 0, 0 ) 
        end 
        else outputChatBox( "" .. name .. " is too far away.", thePlayer, 255, 0, 0 ) 
        end 
    end 
end
