entityCreating Event: Ambient Pickup GetEntityModel returns 0

[borianm]

What happened?

I created an ambient pickup on the client. I listened to the entityCreating event on the server. The creation triggered the event, but when I run GetEntityModel(entity) it returns 0.

Expected result

GetEntityModel(entity) should return the pickup hash

Reproduction steps

1. Create this client command and run it:

   RegisterCommand('test_pickup', function()
   local pickupCoords = GetEntityCoords(PlayerPedId())
   local weaponModel = GetHashKey("weapon_pistol")
   local pickupHash = GetHashKey("PICKUP_WEAPON_PISTOL")
   
   Citizen.CreateThread(function()
       local pickup = CreateAmbientPickup(pickupHash, pickupCoords.x, pickupCoords.y, pickupCoords.z + 2.0, 0, 100, weaponModel, true, true)
   end)
   end)

2. Listen to the entityCreating event on the server and fetch the entity model:

   on('entityCreating', (entity) => {
   console.log(GetEntityModel(entity))
   })

3. It should return the same pickup hash when the command is ran, but it returns 0.

While this still wouldn't return the correct model hash on the server-side weaponModel needs to be an actual model and not a weapon type (in your case w_pi_pistol).
