Map blips

Mafia II map icons are selected with a (library, iconId) pair. Library 0 contains twelve icons addressed by IDs 1 through 12; the other available libraries contain one icon each at ID 0.

Blips are authoritative server entities. They replicate to connected players, can remain at a fixed world position, and can follow a player or vehicle.

Creating a map blip on the server

Use Blip.create(x, y, z, library, iconId, color?, virtualWorld?) from a server resource:

const droppedBlips = [];

Events.on("playerCommand", (player, command) => {
  if (command !== "dropblip") return;

  const position = player.position;
  const blip = Blip.create(
    position.x,
    position.y,
    position.z,
    0, // Library
    1, // Icon ID
    5  // Objective color
  );

  droppedBlips.push(blip);
});

Call blip.setIcon(library, iconId) to change an existing icon. blip.attachToPlayer(player) and blip.attachToVehicle(vehicle) make it follow an entity; blip.destroy() removes it. Keep references to created blips so your resource can destroy them when they are no longer needed.

The optional color uses the game navigation palette: 0 default, 1 player, 2 enemy, 3 neutral, 4 friendly, 5 objective, 6 vehicle, 7 shop, and 8 police.
