Text UI Service

Description

The TextUIService handles rendering text both on the screen (2D) and attached to world coordinates (3D). It is ideal for interaction prompts or floating labels above objects.

API Methods

show() / hide()

Displays/hides a persistent text prompt at the bottom-right of the screen.

show(text: string, options?: TextUIOptions)

---

drawText3D()

Renders text at a world coordinate. The service automatically calculates screen projection and applies distance-based scaling.

drawText3D(position: Vector3, text: string, options?: Text3DOptions)

Example Usage

@Client.Controller()
export class InteractionController {
  constructor(private readonly textUI: TextUIService) {}

  @Client.OnTick()
  renderLabels() {
    this.textUI.drawText3D({ x: 1.0, y: 2.0, z: 3.0 }, "[E] Open Trunk", {
      background: true
    });
  }
}

Notes

• drawText3D must be called every frame (inside a tick) to remain visible.
• show() is persistent and managed by an internal service tick until hide() is called.
• Scaling in 3D is automatically adjusted so the text remains readable as the camera moves.
