I am trying to make an SCP game and I made a surface GUI in each door and want it so that when the player is near a door is shows up. image

How can I do this since I’m doing to be using multiple doors around the whole map?

Example below:

Red is the “radius”

Would this work at all for you?

I think this is what he wants:

#4

It’s basically a proximityprompt but I’m not using the default UI and have a surface GUI on the door. I want it to work similarly to a billboard UI where you got to be close to see it.

ProximityPrompt as a SurfaceGui
#5

I’m also using a proximity prompt to open the door buts its set to custom so it doesnt show up.

The surface gui should disappear when you walk away.

#6

could probably try using Region3 to make it appear/dissapear whenever you step out of the range

#7

there’s multiple doors around the whole map. I also do not understand how to use Region3 even after reading the page about it.

#8

I’ve heard about raycast and magnitude. Maybe you could use them.

#9

Use magnitudes, they’re reliable and perfect for this.

#10

If you want to run the same code for multiple instances, do a for loop:

local Folder = workspace.Doors
for _, door in pairs(Folder:GetChildren()) do
    -- Code
    door.SurfaceGui.Enabled = true -- Example
end
