I’ve seen other authors letting their character do 2 animations at once when they are talking, so what code do you use to make that happen?

2

you’ll use
&CHARACTER1 starts (animation) AND CHARACTER2 starts (animation)

I don’t really understand what you mean😅. could you explain further?

In some stories the characters punch fast without pausing for a few seconds to lay another punch.

If I’m understanding correctly, you would just add a pause between that character’s animation.

I’m not entirely sure how long the pause should be so you would have to play with that but here’s an LL and a INK example:

LL:
&CHARACTER1 starts punch_fight_give_angry
@pause for 0.4
&CHARACTER1 starts punch_fight_give_angry
@pause for 0.5
&CHARACTER1 starts punch_fight_give_angry
@pause for 0.4
&CHARACTER1 starts punch_fight_give_angry

INK:
&CHARACTER1 starts punch_jab
@pause for 0.4
&CHARACTER1 starts punch_jab
@pause for 0.4
&CHARACTER1 starts punch_jab
@pause for 0.5
&CHARACTER1 starts punch_jab
