    NARRATOR (MOM)           **Here**
Jade are you home dear!

But it doesn’t and takes me to the keep it a secret choice so what do i do??

The “secret” choice dialogue needs to inside that choice, not after the “after_outfit” label. That “after_outfit” label is to merge those 2 choice back to the same story line.

Could you show what you mean

hi would i be able to grab a script template on how to do a mirror scene where it has the faded character reflection in the mirror please
and can i also have your help with how to have a character in front of overlays

That’s probably not the best approach. What I do is that I focus on another character and then start the behavior and after some time, refocus on the MC and they should have the desired face by then

And i need someone to teach me how we the weird face end of flirt_fingersnap animation
anyone can give me example

I am trying to do some spot work on a scene, but when I try to move around characters, I only see boxes made of hyphens. What do I need to do? Is there some way I can actually see my characters, so I can, y’know, set up my scenes?

Read these posts for the mirror reflection:
1- Mirror Reflection
2- Help with Mirror Reflection

To have a character in front of an overlay, you need to put the character at a higher layer than the overlay. Some helpful threads:
