Drop?

[Bean666]

why does the weapon drop only on the north side?if im facing south , the weapon drops behind of me how to fix that? i want it to drop in front of your player.

function drop(player,cmd,amount) 
     local x,y,z = getElementPosition(player) 
     local weapon = getPedWeapon(player) 
     local ammo = getPedTotalAmmo(player) 
     local amount = tonumber(amount) 
local x,y,z = getElementPosition(player) 
            local rot = getPedRotation(player) 
     if ammo >= amount then 
          takeWeapon(player,weapon,amount) 
          setElementID(createPickup(x,y+5,z,2,weapon,5000,amount),"WeaponPickUp") 
          outputChatBox("*You Dropped the Weapon successfuly",player,0,255,0,true) 
     else 
          outputChatBox("*You Don't Have that "..amount..".",player,255,0,0,true) 
     end 
end 
addCommandHandler("drop",drop)

Use this function:

function getPositionInfrontOfElement(element, meters) 
    local posX, posY, posZ = getElementPosition(element) 
    local _, _, rotation = getElementRotation(element) 
    posX = posX - math.sin(math.rad(rotation)) * meters 
    posY = posY + math.cos(math.rad(rotation)) * meters 
    return posX, posY, posZ 
end
