Solved addEvent with doRemoveItem(uid)

[Jetro]

what's the correct way for remove an item after x seconds? if i use:

addEvent(doRemoveItem, 3000, uid, 1)

it prints in console : "Item not found".
Thanks in advance.

Do it on the easy way, example:

local item = 2160
function onLogin(cid)
local function remItem(cid)
doRemoveItem(item, 1)
return true
end

addEvent(remItem, 3000, cid)
end
return true
end

you didn't get my point, here is a piece of my code:

local item = getThingFromPos(position)
doRemoveItem(item.uid, 1) --this works, remove the item 
addEvent(doRemoveItem, 3000, item.uid, 1)-- this doesn't work, it shows the error in console

function remove()
local item = getThingFromPos(position)
doRemoveItem(item.uid, 1) --this works, remove the item 
return true
end
addEvent(remove, 3000)-- this doesn't work, it shows the error in console

If UID is constant (set via editor), just doRemoveItem can be used. otherwise getThingfromPos/getTileItemById
