Making a Gui Visible when you hover over another players character?
What methods should I use if you hover your mouse over another players torso and it brings up a Gui at the mouse position?
Should I use OnMouseHover? I'm not really sure how to make the gui appear at the position of the mouse when they hover either? Can anyone go in depth on how to do this?
My main question is, how would I make a Gui be at the mouse position and only be activated/visible when it hovers over another players torso?
Here is my attempt
Attempt
wait()
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer;
local mouse = plr:GetMouse();
local Frame = script.Parent.Tag
local Content = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Content")
mouse.Move:connect(function()
local X, Y = mouse.X, mouse.Y
if game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(mouse.Target.Parent)-- Checks to make sure they are an actual player
and X > script.Parent.AbsolutePosition.x and
Y > script.Parent.AbsolutePosition.y and
X < script.Parent.AbsolutePosition.x+script.Parent.AbsoluteSize.x and
Y < script.Parent.AbsolutePosition.y+script.Parent.AbsoluteSize.y
then
Frame.Visible = true; -- Change frame to whatever you want visible
Frame.Position = UDim2.new(0,X+1,0,Y+1)
else
Frame.Visible = false; -- Change frame to whatever you want invisible
end
end)
Error: Target comes up as a nil value.

As a LocalScript inside of the GUI, you would use the Move event to check when the mouse is moved and you would get the mouse's target (mouse variable.Target) to get the target the mouse is at. You would then check if it was a player and make the GUI visible if so.
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer;
local mouse = plr:GetMouse();
mouse.Move:connect(function()
if game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(mouse.Target.Parent) then -- Checks to make sure they are an actual player
script.Parent.Frame.Visible = true; -- Change frame to whatever you want visible
else
script.Parent.Frame.Visible = false; -- Change frame to whatever you want invisible
end
end)
Edit (To answer your edit):
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer;
local mouse = plr:GetMouse();
local Frame = script.Parent.Tag;
local Content = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Content");
mouse.Move:connect(function()
local X, Y = mouse.X, mouse.Y;
if mouse.Target then
if game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(mouse.Target.Parent)-- Checks to make sure they are an actual player
and X > script.Parent.AbsolutePosition.x and
Y > script.Parent.AbsolutePosition.y and
X < script.Parent.AbsolutePosition.x+script.Parent.AbsoluteSize.x and
Y < script.Parent.AbsolutePosition.y+script.Parent.AbsoluteSize.y
then
Frame.Visible = true; -- Change frame to whatever you want visible
Frame.Position = UDim2.new(0,X+1,0,Y+1);
else
Frame.Visible = false; -- Change frame to whatever you want invisible
end
else
Frame.Visible = false;
end
end)
My apologies, for I forgot to actually check if there was a target. Please let me know of any other concerns you may have.
