would it be possible to make some sort of in game compass that was always displayed and would always point north even if the camera rotation changed?
I wanted to get rid of my mini map in my rpg but since the camera rotation changes it would make getting around a pain without a compass or something.

I think the best you could do is a multi-board that tells you
with a trigger that changes the board depending on which direction your facing
Like 0* 90* 180* 270*
Would just have t0 go through rotating a unit till you figure out which way you want North to be
