Before you call

Citizen.InvokeNative in CitizenFX Lua does not auto-marshal float/Vector3 returns — the result comes back wrong (community reports both a plain boolean and only-the-x-component-as-a-number); for these returns use the named Lua wrapper (e.g. GetEntityVelocity, GetPedBoneCoords, GetOffsetFromEntityInWorldCoords) or append Citizen.ResultAsVector() / Citizen.ResultAsFloat() as the final InvokeNative argument, and in JS/TS (no wrapper exists) Citizen.resultAsVector() / resultAsFloat() is mandatory; plain int/handle and void returns are unaffected. (see findings: learning:3, learning:17, learning:19, learning:24, learning:83 — fetch via get_document)

Any* params are caller-supplied struct/array buffers (not scalar Pointer placeholders): build one with DataView.ArrayBuffer(8*N) and write every field — even Int32/BOOL — at zero-based, little-endian, 8-byte-aligned offsets, then pass view:Buffer(); consult the native's struct definition / linked findings for which fields are inputs vs outputs (read outputs back with GetInt32/GetInt64 at the same 8-byte stride) and whether each field is a CreateVarString-wrapped text field (UIFEED toast structs) or just a plain int / joaat hash — see get_invoke_guide.
