Attaching a marker to objects - Jimmy0wns - 21.02.2015

Hello, is there any function to attach markers to certain object IDs?

There are two things you can attach to an object: Objects and Cameras.

You are free to obtain an object position using the function GetObjectPos, and then create something like a MapIcon in the same pos.

Can you be more specific what you mean with a marker?
You mean a checkpoint, pickup, or what?

Anyways, you could use a 1 sec or such repeating timer that uses GetObjectPos, and sets the position of that "marker" to the object repeadetly.

He refers to the red markers you see in game for checkpoints, not pick-ups. It's impossible, as far as I know.

if you want the red marker only, nothing else, then I have a solution:

There is an object that's the red marker, you could use it and attach the object to another object using https://sampwiki.blast.hk/wiki/AttachObjectToObject
