You want a compass in a game where the camera is always facing one direction?

EZ PZ Lemonsqueezy.

1) Make an Item with these attributes:
Comsume: No
Scope: None
Occassion: Always
Animation: None
Common Event: 001:compass (this can be any number or name.)
Speed: 0
Recovery Effect: Everything 0
Damage Effect: Everything 0

2) Make a common event that corresponds to the item's common event. So for this it would be: 001:compass
Now add this to the Common Event with these attributes:
@>Show Picture 1, 'Compass', Upper Left, 0, 0, (100%,100%), 255, Normal
@>Conditional Branch: The C Button is Being Presss
   @>Erase Picture 1
   @>
:   Else
   @>
:   Branch End
