Everything you need to know about overlays is in this guide: A Guide to Using & Animating OVERLAYS
If you want to make a car move, you can use a looping background where the background moves on it’s own to make it appear as if the car is driving. Just place the overlay and character where you want them in the scene. You can find looping background in the art catalog unter the tag “Loop”. Or if you want to use a regular background and have a car overlay and character drive and move, read this guide: 🚗 HOW TO: Drive into / Drive Off the scene with Character inside

To have 2 dressing games in 1 episode, you need to change the label and the goto in the 2nd dressing game. Just add “2” at the end of both. So if the label is “dressing_game1”, then just change it to “dressing_game2”. You will also need to find the goto and change that to match the label.

Do you have a guide or know of someone who does have one about overlays?

can you please tell me how to lock a chapter?

**Dara.Amarie** · August 20, 2018, 4:00am

Put a looping message at the beginning of the episode. To create a looping message, use a label and a goto

label locked

NARRATOR
This chapter is temporarily locked.
You will get a free pass when this chapter is ready. 
To leave, tap on the exit button at the top left corner. 

goto locked

Since I completely forgot how to code , can I ask how to make a character walk whilst doing another animation instead of the default walking animation?

**Dara.Amarie** · August 20, 2018, 3:57pm

@CHARACTER walks to [spot] in [time] and CHARACTER faces [direction] and CHARACTER does it while [animation]

No Bella is the one, I dont know if she have the outfit on what the readers want ? Because By me she has her old look ? Or is it like that she has her old outfit on because im the writer?

**Dara.Amarie** · August 20, 2018, 4:36pm

Did you play through the outfit choice then immediately play the next scene afterwards?

**miri.episode** · August 20, 2018, 4:41pm

no i dont think so?

**Dara.Amarie** · August 20, 2018, 4:43pm

Test your story and play through those scenes. If you just skip around your story and not play through the whole thing then your characters will stay in the outfits they were last in when you last tested it.

**miri.episode** · August 20, 2018, 4:48pm

ah thanks!
