someone who knows why the npc police drop in and do not interfere with this code …

local pedindex = {}
 
function SetWeaponDrops() -- This function will set the closest entity to you as the variable entity.
    local handle, ped = FindFirstPed()
    local finished = false -- FindNextPed will turn the first variable to false when it fails to find another ped in the index
    repeat
        if not IsEntityDead(ped) then
                pedindex[ped] = {}
        end
        finished, ped = FindNextPed(handle) -- first param returns true while entities are found
    until not finished
 
    for peds,_ in pairs(pedindex) do
        if peds ~= nil then -- set all peds to not drop weapons on death.
            SetPedDropsWeaponsWhenDead(peds, false)
        end
    end
end
 
 
Citizen.CreateThread(function()
    while true do
        Citizen.Wait(0)
        SetWeaponDrops()
    end
end)

You should ask @JinkLeft it’s his code. But some have already stated it works sometimes and sometimes it don’t. I haven’t had a problem with it yet. In the future don’t create a thread for an issue. Ask in the thread you got the code from.

I have a development server ect but I just don’t actually develop anymore currently as I’ve been pretty busy IRL and I never actually tested that script. It was just a modification of script I used at the request of a friend and they told me it worked so I figured I’d throw it to the community if they wanted to mess around with it.
