So do that. You cannot declare a variable in a table that not yet exist.

By the way, 
if havebal[id] == true then
and 
if havebal[id] then
are totally the same statements, use the second one instead to keep your code a bit more clean.

@user Rainoth: Although, it depends on what you get when one said: "exists".

x = true

x variable exists and is true and the both statement would be true.

x = false

x variable exists and is false and the both statement would be false.

local x

x variable exists and is undefined? The both statement would be false anyway.

As a result, I'd say they both are totally the same, even if they are not when it comes to "technically" saying.

@user Rainoth: I posted this comment just to make sure if you actually meant that you have seen other possibilities that these both statements cannot be matched to each other when you saying that.

1) Declare global 
havebal={}


or:

2) If it is some kind of a football script, maybe it should be 
haveball
?

@user Masea: Yes I had in mind the usability of both. They do work like you mentioned but the one without comparison can also be used to check if variables exist (like say if a variable existed even if it wasn't a boolean).
Meaning although you can use both in this scenario, they are not technically the same because you can use one in a wider variety of cases.

@user maninja: Like we told you before, your 'havebal' variable doesn't exist.

You need to define it like so
1
haveball = {}
and then set it to true for a player when he's supposed to have it true.
From looking at the code, it seems like it should "simulate" dropping an item while preventing the actual drop of the item. I'm guessing it's to spawn an item with full ammo or something like that.

Global means that it is not declared inside any function (like rp_drop).

I bet this is the outcome
haveball = {}
for i = 1, 1000000 do
     local id = i
     if havebal[id] then
          msg('will we ever see this message? ;-;')
     end
end
