Hi! So let’s say this is my script:

CHAR1 (talk_armscrossed_neutral_loop)
I can’t wait for her to tell us the results!
I’ve been waiting ALL weekend!

CHAR2 (talk_sarcastic)
Well, she’s not going to tell us anytime soon.

If you can, (I’m only asking because I’ve seen it in some stories) how do you make CHAR1 do idle_shiftweight_neutral_loop immediately after they stop talking, without any pauses, so CHAR2 starts talking instantly? Thanks so much!

&CHAR1 is idle_shiftweight_neutral_loop

CHAR2 (talk_sarcastic)
Well, she’s not going to tell us anytime soon.

So:

You can write either:

&CHAR1 is idle_shiftweight_neutral_loop

OR

@CHAR1 starts idle_shiftweight_neutral_loop
