Heya! I’ve been writing my own Camera script for my next game, which will feature an over-the-shoulder perspective. After turning bubble chat on, I realized that the text bubbles appear to offset incorrectly on screen:
I’ve created a blank baseplate with the Camera script and other scripts/guis dependent on it here: Over-Shoulder-Cam Repro - Roblox
I want to bring this up again because it doesn’t feel fair that I have to choose between having bubble chat in my game, and having the camera I intend players to experience my game with. This unintended behavior is really harming how I want to approach making my game. 
As a temporary fix you could fork the BubbleChat script and change the StudsOffset used in SetBillboardLODNear
Change:
billboardGui.StudsOffset = Vector3.new(0, isLocalPlayer and 1.5 or 2.5, isLocalPlayer and 2 or 0.1)
To:
billboardGui.StudsOffset = Vector3.new(0, isLocalPlayer and 1.5 or 2.5, 0.1)
I’m also having this issue. My use case is Chat:Chat(NPC.Head, “Please center me”).
Wondering if temporary fix means that future BubbleChat script will have this change included? Would prefer not to fork Roblox scripts.
