I have problems with the pickups

[2013martin1212]

When i drop my weapon then create a pickup which is works fine but after someone picked up then some sec later the pickup comes back again can be some way destroy the pickup after the player picked up and dont come back again?

There is my script

addCommandHandler("drop",function(player)

local x,y,z = getElementPosition(player)

local weapon,ammo = getPedWeapon(player),getPedTotalAmmo(player)

takeWeapon(player,weapon,ammo)

local pickup = createPickup(x+4,y,z+1,2,weapon,5000,ammo)

addEventHandler("onPickupHit", pickup, destroyElement) -- destroy the pickup on hit

end)

[..:D&G:..]

addCommandHandler("drop", 
function(player) 
    local x,y,z = getElementPosition(player) 
    local weapon,ammo = getPedWeapon(player),getPedTotalAmmo(player) 
    takeWeapon(player,weapon,ammo) 
    pickup = createPickup(x+4,y,z+1,2,weapon,5000,ammo) 
end) 
  
function destroyPickup(thePlayer) 
    destroyElement(pickup) 
    outputChatBox("You picked up a weapon!", thePlayer, 255, 0, 0) 
end 
addEventHandler("onPickupHit", pickup, destroyPickup) 

"destroyElement is a function where you need to add the element that you want to destroy in the brackets "()"

Use giveWeapon() when the player Hit the pickup.

giveWeapon()

        takeWeapon(player, weapon, ammo) 
        pickup = createPickup(x+4, y, z+1, 2, weapon, -1, ammo) 
        addEventHandler("onPickupHit", pickup, destroyPickup)
