Animations hug or kiss

[Jacky]

I am starting with writing my first story. But How do you characters hug or kiss each other?

Use the animation hug and hug_rear. Then use the spot to make the characters hold each other.

Don’t forget about layers

HOW TO: Move Characters / Overlays to the Layers

Moving to the layers means something or someone can be in front or behind character or overlay. You can use as many numbers as you want: -100 to 100 (probably even more) CHARACTERS: Commands: @CHARACTER moves to layer # @CHARACTER spot % X Y in zone # at layer # [image] This picture is an example to show how numbers working. Entering characters (@CHARACTER enters from left to screen right) are always in front of everything (unless you move other characters or overlays to the layers) If …

And proper facing for characters doing rear actions:

Character facing rear left:

Command:
@CHARACTER faces right AND CHARACTER is hug_rear

Character facing rear right:

Command:
@CHARACTER faces left AND CHARACTER is hug_rear

Moved to Directing Help & Tips as that’s where scripting questions live! Did this answer your question? @Jacky

Hey,

I want to make 2 of my characters hug as well, however with the below animations, I can get them to hug but the “Margaret” character is facing the wrong way… How do I fix this? I’ve tried putting the command “faces left” to the sentence… didn’t work

@NATHANIEL faces right and NATHANIEL is hug_neutral AND MARGARET is hug_neutral_rear

Please go easy on me, it’s my first story haha

Thanks in advance (:

When it’s rear, it’s in the other way. Try putting faces right
