Is there a way to show a GUI image ctrl at the player.x and player.y? I've tried it on layer 1 and 0 and it didn't work. :/

You can't show GUIs at level coords. You can convert between level and screen coords if you want, though.

how would you do that? I tried localtoglobalcoords/globaltolocal, but i'm not really sure how to do it in this situation to be honest.

I had the same question 7 years ago, and also tried using globaltolocalcoords without understanding what it does. Quoting:

If I understand, You want to change the level coordinates to screen coordinates. To do this:


screenx(x, y)
screeny(x, y)


They will return the screen position at (x, y).
