Making a script where you mouse over a player and it says that player's name

correct!

it would be a billboard Gui in the players torso.
It would have to be accessed through PlayerGui so only that player can see it.

You should also be able to grab the mouse from current camera, and check the position of the mouse vs the position of characters' torsos right? Or did Roblox take the ability to get mouse from current camera away?

You can get mouse straight from player

local Mouse = Player:GetMouse()

your connection line would be Mouse.etc

check if the humanoid is apart of the model, then put the billboardgui in the head, or have the billboardgui's adornee be the head

Gianni, great, I forgot they made that function, and yes Vacha, that is what I was talking about. Thanks for picking up on it. I've never used a GUI in a part before, sounds interesting, I will have to test it out now.
