I want a text box to follow my guys at Guy.x-2 and Guy.y+7 or something and just follow him. I need to show the variables 'exp' and 'attack' and 'defense' I think. I've been trying but I'm failing. Health too but I think that's easier, at least Health I mean, the others are just fine the way they are I don't really care.

this was mine, like 1 year ago, in gm5.3 so it probably won't work anymore,
try this, put it in the draw event of your character
draw_text(view_left[0] + x, view_top[0] + y, Health,)
sorry about the quietness of the forum, other members always complain about it being so quiet, but they never seem to do anything to liven it up in the first place

Man I put
draw_text(Guy.x-2,Guy.y+7,health)
and now my object called Guy dissappeared and it's just a number of health of the badguy or something. I'll keep tryin.

you have to do it like this if you want it to follow the screen,
draw_text(view_left[0] + x, view_top[0] + y, Health,)
if your just trying to make a health bar or something above you head, try creating another object and put that draw_text(Guy.x-2,Guy.y+7,health in his draw event

When an object has a draw event, it will not draw the sprite. To do this, you must have, in the draw event,
draw_sprite(sprite_index,image_single,x,y)

I have a method of drawing the exp,lvl,hp, and sp in a stats menu, but i'd rather not go into detail here. just check out my example in the wip forums.
