How do I get my character to stand up without a bed?

I tried to get a character to stand up without using a bed… so when my other one (let’s just say JJ) comes in, the character that’s supposed to stand up (BB) stands up. BB is still onscreen, it’s just that she’s not visible in the reader’s eyes. I want to make her stand up when JJ enters, so it makes BB look like she got knocked out and was standing up again.

Try moving BB to a different spot and then have her stand up, e.g. “@BB spot 1.28 240 0 THEN BB faces left AND BB is stand_up / standup_neutral.”
