wait actually it is i cant explain tho err lemme try


basically you would need to include math in it as the player gets farther away you would need to multiply by the distance they are from (or add)


idk how to tell the distance tho ask some1 else

If you don't want it to change size, use Offset.
{XScale, XOffset}, {YScale, YOffset}
If you use Offset, it WILL NOT change size.
If you DO want it to change size, use Scale.

this is how the positions and sizes of GUIs are set

{XScale, XOffset}, {YScale, YOffset}

the first table is for the X axis, and the second for the Y

there are two arguments for each axis when determining size and position

one scales and one does n ot

What's I'm trying to say is no matter if I change either sizes it still won't get smaller when I zoom out it simply stays the same size and engulfs the map if I zoom out enough
