Hey!
I have a problem in my script and I don’t understand why.
I wrote this:

sound door_knock

@pause for a beat
@pause for a beat
@pause for a beat

sound door_knock
@pause for a beat
@pause for a beat
@pause for a beat
music off

music door_slam
@follow CHARACTER to screen left in zone 2
@pause for a beat
@pause for a beat
music off

and the music door_slam keeps going repeatedly.

Can you help me?

Thanks.

sound is for a 1 time playthrough.
music is for looping

So change all those “music” into “sound”

sound door_knock

@pause for a beat
@pause for a beat
@pause for a beat

sound door_knock
@pause for a beat
@pause for a beat
@pause for a beat
sound off

sound door_slam
@follow CHARACTER to screen left in zone 2
@pause for a beat
@pause for a beat
sound off

Also, just a little tip, you don’t need to keep adding @pause for a beat repeatedly like that. If you want to pause for 3 seconds, just put @pause for 3

tysm!!

Thanks! I figured out!

Does anyone have branching and point system template?

hey how do you pan to another zone while making a group of characters each walk to a different spot at the same time??? I’ve tried &follow SOFIA to spot 1.280 58 12 in zone 2 but its not working

The follow command doesn’t work with spots. You’ll have to pan to a zone and make the characters walk at the same time in the same amount of seconds. All commands should use the & sign except for the last character which should use the @ sign

&pan to zone # in T
&CHARACTER1 walks to spot % x y in zone # in T
&CHARACTER2 walks to spot % x y in zone # in T
&CHARACTER3 walks to spot % x y in zone # in T
@CHARACTER1 walks to spot % x y in zone # in T

hey i tried this but it’s not working an error is showing up. do you know whats wrong?
here is my script:
&pan to zone 2 in 8
&SIENNE walks to spot 0.785 76 303 in 8 in zone 2
&JORDAN walks to spot 0.830 26 288 in 8 in zone 2
&ALEX walks to spot 0.839 119 306 in 8 in zone 2
@SOFIA walks to spot 0.866 23 227 in 8 in zone 2

Woops sorry about that, the time and zone needs to be switched “in zone 2 in 8”

Hi everyone, I have a question that I haven’t been able to find the answer to yet.

When having a lot of choices, how do I get the “go on to page 2,3, etc.” option?

Thanks!!

EDIT: Do you have to code it by adding another section? I think I’ve figured it out…

Yes create a new section with new labels and gotos

Thank so much, I figured it out!

What does this mean:

@CHARACTER stands POSITION + Xpx

?
