I'm trying to figure out how to find a part's 2d position so I can do some comparisons to the mouse's position. I know there are other ways to do this but is there a way to get a 3d object's 2d on screen position?

How would I get an object's on screen position?
1 answer
try this:
local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
local worldPoint = part.Position
local vector, onScreen = camera:WorldToScreenPoint(worldPoint)
--onScreen is true or false
--vector is a vector2 point (x,y)

You use this function https://developer.roblox.com/api-reference/function/Camera/WorldToScreenPoint on the camera, it returns a vector3 position and a bool indicating if the position provided to the function is on screen. The vector3's z component is the depth from the camera
