im trying to get the camera to pan back to zone 1 just after my main character has walked there, i know you cant use the &follow command when using spot placement which is why im using pan. but while im trying to get it to go back to zone one it keeps stopping short of where i want it. the scene is zoomed in slightly so i dont know if that affects the zones or something

my code so far is:
@zoom on 650 151 to 189% in 3
@MAIN1 faces left
@speechbubble is 158 404 to 82% with tail_bottom_right
MAIN1
Do you want a had with the pots before Lilly and i head in to town?
@speechbubble is 158 404 to 82% with tail_bottom_left

Okay then, lets make a move
@ALFRED is pickup_object_neutral
@ALFRED walks to spot 0.561 172 313 in zone 1
@MAIN1 is pickup_object_neutral
@MAIN1 walks to spot 0.525 230 312 in zone 1 in 3
&pan to zone 1

You want the camera to follow the character?

&pan to zone 1 in 3
@MAIN1 walks to spot 0.525 230 312 in zone 1 in 3

If the camera looks weird you might need to zoom reset or play around with the camera.
