i see all these health bar attachments on hive but i dont see a health number attachment, instead displaying health in a bar, i want it to display in a number above their head. I really really need this, thank you and +rep to whoever does it :D

Bump. I really need this, and i think it should be simple to do, all i want is just the number of hp the unit has above the head, nothing else but the number of hp it has, so if it takes damage the number changes to its new current hp.

That is waaay harder to do with a model (barly impossible).... try using some triggers, here on the hive they are many systems that can do something similar.

Anyway, an attachment by iteself has no way of knowing the units life. Also attachments only play their 1 stand animation. So you will need 1 different attachment model for every life point your unit can have. AKA: displaying number 500 needs 1 attachment, for number 499 another attachment, etc.
