Hi, i want to know coordinate of a player but server-side.
server.lua

RegisterNetEvent("mine_test")
AddEventHandler("mine_test", function()
	print(GetEntityCoords(GetPlayerPed(source)).x)
	print(GetPlayerName(source))
end)

And i trigger that event with a command. GetPlayerName works well. EntitityCoords print 0.0 even if I’m not at that coord.
I only want to save to database the last coordinates before quit.

No, no onesync @TheIndra

Getting the entity coords serversided works only on onesync

I have onesync but it still gives me wrong coordinates

player = ""
function getPlayerCoords(data)
    local ped = GetPlayerPed(data)
    local name = GetPlayerName(data)
    local coords = GetEntityCoords(ped, true)

    player = coords.x .. ";" .. coords.y .. ";" .. coords.x .. "#" .. name
end

RegisterServerCallback('getPlayer:get', function(source, data)
    if (pcall(getPlayerCoords, data)) then
        return player
    else
    	return "error"
    end
end)
