Help Me Please Duplicate My Overlay

My overlay is not duplicating, and I’m doing everything right.

Here is the script.
INT. BURGER JOINT 1 with BURGER JOINT 2 to 1.000 0 0 in zone 2 at layer -30 with BURGER JOINT 3 to 1.000 0 0 in zone 3 at layer -40 with BURGER JOINT 4 to 1.000 0 0 in zone 2 at layer -20 with BURGER JOINT 1 to 1.000 0 0 in zone 1 at layer -21 with FRIES to .064 166 187 in zone 1 at layer -18 with ROMANTIC MILKSHAKE to .136 177 201 in zone 1 at layer -19 with HAMBURGER AND FRIES to .117 203 206 in zone 1 at layer -20
&overlay HAMBURGER AND FRIES_1 create from HAMBURGER AND FRIES AND overlay HAMBURGER AND FRIES_1 opacity 1 in 0 AND overlay HAMBURGER AND FRIES_1 shifts to 149 190 in zone 1 AND overlay HAMBURGER AND FRIES_1 scales to 0.152 0.152 AND overlay HAMBURGER AND FRIES_1 moves to layer -20
@add Bagel Cream Cheese to MELANIA
&MELANIA spot .660 226 205 in zone 1 at layer -24 AND MELANIA faces left AND MELANIA starts eat_food_hand_neutral AND DEXTER spot .675 160 206 in zone 1 at layer -23 AND DEXTER faces right
@zoom on 213 295 to 277% in 0
@speechbubble is 140 125 to 91% with tail_top_left

    DEXTER (talk_doubtful)
You just love eating off my plate huh?

hi! Maybe remove the word ‘AND’ from your overlay name because episode might confuse it with the AND which connects two lines of code

I thought that, but it’s duplicating with other scenes. I copied and changed the overlay name and used the same command but it’s not working at all.

You could try rearranging your code into this format:

&overlay HAMBURGER_AND_FRIES_1 create from HAMBURGER AND FRIES
&overlay HAMBURGER_AND_FRIES_1 opacity 1
&overlay HAMBURGER_AND_FRIES_1 moves to layer -20
&overlay HAMBURGER_AND_FRIES_1 shifts to 149 190 in zone 1
@.overlay HAMBURGER_AND_FRIES_1 scales to 0.152 0.152
( ^remember to delete the period )

I find that using this format may remove any possible confusion on Episode Interactive’s part and make it easier for you to spot anything that may be missing or otherwise. It may or may not fix the actual problem, but it may be worth trying. Anyway, I hope this helps.

Thank you. I tried that and it still didn’t work. I think I’m gonna have to reupload it again and name it something else
