Title: Health Above Enemy
Post by: misterjuly on June 13, 2021, 07:40:26 AM

Hello,

I have an enemy with health, and I have a health ui, but for some reason, I can't get it to show up above the enemy's head. I tried using both world space and screen space overlay, but it didn't seem to work. I want the health ui to move as the enemy moves, which is the tricky part. It is also a child of the enemy. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Thanks in advance for your help!

What info would you like? Playmaker FSMs or something on the unity editor and if so what? Thanks!

Do you use an asset for that, if not some screenshot of the states of the FSMs in charge of the function.

Hi.
If you use world space you can set the canvas as a child to Enemy.

Other way is to use screen to world point

I tried setting it as a child to the enemy. How do I use screen to world point? Thanks!
