Okay, I’ll try. Thanks for the help!! :slight_smile:

Yes choices can inside choices. Just make sure that every starting bracket needs a matching end bracket.

Hey Dara,
I need some help on changing backgrounds in my story. Thanks!

To change the background just add the background name to the script.

What does your script look like

'kay thanks again!<3

How do you write a command for when I want two people to reply at same time. I think I’ve seen people do this before when it says BOTH but I don’t know how to do this.

How do you have a choice where it’s locked?

Create a character named BOTH

The choice needs a label before it then use <LOCKED>

label label_name

CHARACTER
Dialogue.

choice
<LOCKED> “Option here” {
NARRATOR
This choice is locked.
goto label_name
}

Hey Dara !

There’s a conversation between two characters of mine and I want their facial and body expressions to change while talking

(eg. Have Charmagne talk and have Marilyn angry WHILE Charmange is talking)

However when I try I always get a delay
I know somethings wrong - Here is the script

CHARMAGNE (talk_smile_happy_loop)
Hey Marilyn!
@MARILYN enters from left to screen left AND MARILYN is walk_neutral_loop AND CHARMAGNE is idle_happy_loop

    MARILYN (talk_explain_neutral)
Your mother is waiting for you in the dining hall

    CHARMAGNE (talk_neutral)
Okay

@MARILYN is idle_awkward_uneasy_loop

    CHARMAGNE (talk_apathetic)
Could you ask George to prepare the limo?

    MARILYN (talk_neutral)
Of course your majesty

Use “starts” instead of “is” for he character doing the animation while the other is talking

Hi, i need help with an error in my story

I am trying to make my characters change their hair into the new bun from Episode, but it says that small bun does not exist

i wrote

@BLAIRE changes hair into Small Bun
@GIRL3 changes hair into Small Bun

am i doing it wrong or is that not the name of the bun ?

What does the error message say? And can you post a screenshot.

I asked this question previously and didn’t get an answer, but given the number of people posting questions on here, I totally understand how you might miss a few here and there. My hat’s off to you for just running this thread!

Say I want to have a character share a 5-line limerick. Is it possible to code in soft line returns so that each phrase of the limerick appears on a single line with all 5 phrases visible in a single speech bubble, or do I have to have each line appear separately or just accept wherever the app decides to place the line returns even if it leaves me with 3 lines instead of the 5 I want?

Unfortunately no, there isn’t a code to do this. It looks like you’ll just have to have each line separately appear.
