        new npcid = PlayerNPC[playerid];
        if (npcid == INVALID_NPC_ID)
            return SendClientMessage(playerid, 0xFF0000FF, "You are not debugging a NPC.");

        if (!NPC_IsValid(npcid))
            return SendClientMessage(playerid, 0xFF0000FF, "Invalid NPC.");

        new bool:isReloading = NPC_IsReloading(npcid);

        SendClientMessage(playerid, 0x00FF00FF, "NPC %d is reloading: %s", npcid, isReloading ? "Yes" : "No");
