Help with overhead system

Hi! For my game, I have an overhead tag in all the facilities telling other players their name, display name, rank, and some extra earned badges.

My issue is whenever the player chats, the overhead covers it and it makes it difficult to see the overhead.

Please help!
(sorry if this is the wrong category :sob: )

You can use StudsOffset instead of StudsOffsetWorldSpace.
And as @Artzified said u can toggle on AlwaysOnTop

now if u wanna be a geek and fix it the hard way you can use the old roblox chat script and modify it to up the y axis.

If you migrate to the new Roblox chat, TextChatService, you can easily configure the Bubble chat bubble to appear above.

To migrate: Find TextChatService in your explorer, change ChatVersion in the properties tab to TextChatService.

To configure bubbles: Find BubbleChatConfiguration under TextChatService. Then tweak the VerticalStudsOffset until the chat bubble is above your GUI.

Note that if you’ve created chat tags or chat commands with the legacy chat you will have to rewrite them. You should migrate to the new text chat service because it’s more secure and modern.
