Polygons on the pause map

Fill a volume aggregate with boxes (scanline strips of the polygon) and add one blip for the whole aggregate. Position and size come out exact.

For clean edges:

Setting	Value	Why
Style	`BLIP_STYLE_AREA_NO_DIM` (620596860)	`BLIP_STYLE_AREA` darkens while you stand inside it
Modifier	`BLIP_MODIFIER_AREA_ACCURATE` (453264060)	without it every box is feathered: seams between strips, thin tips vanish
Strips	overlap them by ×1.3–1.6	removes the remaining seams; the step size (~10 m) sets the staircase on slanted edges

An aggregate holds at most 32 boxes. Extra boxes are dropped silently, which looks like clipped corners. Use one aggregate (and one blip) per 32 boxes.

SET_BLIP_NAME on an area blip shows no hover label. Put a point blip with BLIP_STYLE_SHOP (168093330, visible at every zoom) at the centre for the name. An MP_COLOR_* modifier added after the accurate modifier still works.

local agg = Citizen.InvokeNative(0x59F6F5C1D129F106, Citizen.ResultAsInteger()) -- CREATE_VOLUME_AGGREGATE
for _, b in ipairs(strips) do -- at most 32
    Citizen.InvokeNative(0x39816F6F94F385AD, agg, b.x + 0.0, b.y + 0.0, z + 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, b.heading + 0.0, b.w + 0.0, b.h + 0.0, 50.0)
end
local blip = Citizen.InvokeNative(0xA6EF0C54A3443E70, joaat('BLIP_STYLE_AREA_NO_DIM'), agg, Citizen.ResultAsInteger())
Citizen.InvokeNative(0x662D364ABF16DE2F, blip, joaat('BLIP_MODIFIER_AREA_ACCURATE')) -- BLIP_ADD_MODIFIER

Usage

Lua

local retval = BlipAddForVolume(blipHash, volume)

-- always works, by hash
local retval = Citizen.InvokeNative(0xA6EF0C54A3443E70, blipHash, volume, Citizen.ResultAsInteger())

JavaScript and C#

JavaScript

const retval = BlipAddForVolume(blipHash, volume);

// by hash
const retval = Citizen.invokeNative('0xA6EF0C54A3443E70', blipHash, volume, Citizen.returnResultAnyway(), Citizen.resultAsInteger());

int retval = Function.Call<int>((Hash)0xA6EF0C54A3443E70, blipHash, volume);

Hash parameters: the named function also accepts a string and hashes it for you; Citizen.InvokeNative needs the number — pass joaat("name") or a backtick literal like `name`.
The name is a community guess and may change. If the named call is missing in your client build, use InvokeNative with the hash — it always works.
