how to make an overlay appear if near enough to a player?

[Jhan]

What do you mean by near?

[qwerty]

like, an inch away or something from a player

[AstralLuke]

Coordinate device will work

Why do you need this to happen? There might be a better way if we know why.

Dis will work

How to Track Every Player and Find Their Distance [ 8/10]

Welcome to my BIGGEST GUIDE YET! I’ve looked far and wide into the deepest depths of the forums and haven’t found a reliable way to get every player’s position and store it, and no way to find the distance between 2 players. UNTIL NOW! I have been working on this system for a while now. Bug fixing, optimizing, and I’ve finally gotten it to work. This will work for however many players you have in your game and doesn’t require any manual input from the player (except them needing to move around o…

No images bro

Couldn’t you just use a zone near the area where the player has to be near for the overlay to show?

[BoomBoy]

Yeah a zone would do just fine

[SeamlessMoon]

Place a trigger (an inch or wherever you want)

When triggered, broadcast on "Activate overlay"

The overlay

When receiving on "Activate overlay" show overlay

I’m making a marder mystery game, and I want when whenever the marderer is close enough, a unalive button appears

Close enough to a player? If so, then use the coordinates device, but I’m not completely sure how to make it work. A tag zone wouldn’t work because I don’t think that it would act exactly as you want. I’ll check and test stuff rq.

[WSG]

Couldn’t you just have the overlay activate the tag zone and allow the murder3r to tag the person and then deactivate the zone when someone is tagged. You would just have a timer on the overlay. Using the coordinate device wouldn’t help with tracking the vicinity of another player. Unless, you could track that player’s coordinates and the murder3r’s?

[Gimkitsuggestor]

wouldnt this be as simple as a a lot of zones and a Unalive button that pops up when it detects player in zone your in and that activate the zone to kill the person in it

[Luke]

Okay, I think I’m onto smth. So using the blocks on the coordinates device, you can do this:

(Team one in the example is the murd3rer team)

Unfortunately, it doesn’t let you make multiple coord. devices. The thing I now need to do is make an update constantly thing and make it so it checks the value of the Mur3r’s X & Y.
But with this method, it would only work if you cap out at an amount of players. (About 7)
Then get counters that update with the coords for the murd3erer (the x and y properties)
I now need to figure out how to make it calculate the distance between the mur3erer and a survivor. I’ll check back soon
