(playerid, &Float:x, &Float:y, &Float:z)
| playerid | The ID of the player to get the position of. |
| &Float:x | A float variable in which to store the X coordinate in, passed by reference. |
| &Float:y | A float variable in which to store the Y coordinate in, passed by reference. |
| &Float:z | A float variable in which to store the Z coordinate in, passed by reference. |
Return Values:

 Important | This function is known to return unreliable values when used in OnPlayerDisconnect and OnPlayerRequestClass. This is because the player is not spawned. |
