How would I have a BillboardGui appear over NPC's head?

Are you able to send a video of what it does when its disabled as default vs enabled as default?

Sure! Let me record them now. One moment!

It won’t let me upload the video on here since it’s too big; however, here’s a link to a Vimeo video: BillboardGUIVideo on Vimeo

It might take a while to finish uploading—sorry about that!

EDIT: Video is now finished uploading.

Ok, I see what’s wrong now. You will want to change the line erroring to be: NPC.Head:FindFirstChild("BillboardGui").Enabled = true and below do the same but with the ‘true’ being ‘false’

Yes! That fixed the issue :smiley:

You’re the absolute best and I sincerely appreciate you spending so much time helping me with this :heart:

Here’s the final script:

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(Hit)
	if Hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
		if Hit.Parent.Name == "NPC" then
			local NPC = Hit.Parent
			local Int = NPC.Num.Value
			NPC.Head:FindFirstChild("BillboardGui").Enabled = true
			script.Parent.TouchEnded:Connect(function(Hit2)
				if Hit == Hit2 then
					for _, GUIs in pairs(NPC.Head:GetChildren()) do
						if GUIs:IsA("BillboardGui") then
							NPC.Head:FindFirstChild("BillboardGui").Enabled = false
						end
					end
				end
			end)
		end
	end
end)

I removed the line with the StudOffset cause I figured I would just do that within the GUI’s properties instead!

Again, you’re the best! I’m going to follow you on here cause you’ve been so helpful!
