Is there a way to make BillBoardGui's go away after a certain distance?
Say that you are within 1000 studs of a BillBoardGUI, and no matter how big the text/BillBoardGui is, you can still view it. But if you step outside the 1000 stud radius, you cannot see the BillBoardGui.
Is there a scripting method that accomplishes this or not?

I have written a script like this once, but forgive me because I can't find it to copy in the code, but it worked like this: It created the BBGUI, and set the BBGUI's Adornee property to the object its supposed to be connected to, then it cloned and parented the BBGUI to the localplayer, making it so only they can view it, it looks like so(Did my best recreation, excuse the sloppyness or possible inaccuracy):
local Player = game.Players.localPlayer;
local GuiPart = game.Workspace:FindFirstChild("GuiAdornee");
local MaxRange = 1000;
local BBGUI = Instance.new("BillboardGui", script.Parent); --[ This makes a BBGUI for every player, since the Player is the game.Players.localPlayer. ]
BBGUI.Adornee = GuiPart;
BBGUI.Size = UDim2.new(1, 0, 1, 0);
while true do
if Player:DistanceFromChatacter(GuiPart.CFrame.p) > MaxRange then
BBGUI.Enabled = false
else
BBGUI.Enabled = true
end
wait()
end
Hope that helps. :) OH, one last thing, this will have to be in a LocalScript in the Player's PlayerGui.
