This example creates a radar blip attached to a random player, visible to everyone. The blip will follow the player around as they move. This could be used for manhunt, to emphasise a random player. 

-- Pick a random player
function setupRandomRobber ()
	local myPlayer = getRandomPlayer ()
	-- Create a radar blip at the player's position, with a 'cash' icon and only visible to everyone (no 'visibleTo' parameter)
	local myBlip = createBlipAttachedTo ( myPlayer, 52 )
end
