Not having any luck searching for how to do this.

Any thoughts on good ways?



Thanks.

Could elaborate on what you want to do …

If you mean that the player name in a 3d world displays a bar of health too and the size of the bar and name is releative to the distance of the camera - search forum for BillBoard Node



If you want the name and health to be the same size on the screen - no matter how far the player - look for ortho rendering.



if failing the above maybe its a gui thing
