How to walk without stops

Creator's Corner Directing Help & Tips

When my character walks to one spot and straight after I want her to walk to another, it pauses for a beat even though I didn’t command that and I wish she went continuously. Can anyone help?!?! Cheers xx

Can I see your script?

i tried but it didnt work

sure:
@EVE spot 0.420 339 329
@transition fade in black 2
@EVE walks to spot 0.420 138 347 in 1 AND EVE is run_athletic
@EVE walks to spot 0.420 -25 388 in 1 AND EVE is run_athletic

7

Try
&EVE walks to spot …
@EVE walks to spot…

See if it works?

it works but i need to add a few more lines to make the running complete so it looks like this atm:
@EVE spot 0.420 339 329
&EVE walks to spot 0.420 138 347 in 1 AND EVE is run_athletic
@EVE walks to spot 0.420 -25 388 in 1 AND EVE is run_athletic
@EVE spot 0.279 -18 515
&EVE walks to spot 0.255 36 549 in 1 AND EVE is run_athletic
@EVE walks to spot 0.230 90 553 in 1 AND EVE is run_athletic
@EVE walks to spot 0.164 149 601 in 1 AND EVE is run_athletic

Now these ones work:
@EVE spot 0.420 339 329
&EVE walks to spot 0.420 138 347 in 1 AND EVE is run_athletic
@EVE walks to spot 0.420 -25 388 in 1 AND EVE is run_athletic
@EVE spot 0.279 -18 515
&EVE walks to spot 0.255 36 549 in 1 AND EVE is run_athletic
@EVE walks to spot 0.230 90 553 in 1 AND EVE is run_athletic

But I need the last line:
@EVE walks to spot 0.164 149 601 in 1 AND EVE is run_athletic

to also flow

I never tried it before but I believe you can add 2 & consecutively
so maybe use it for last three lines of codes
&EVE walks to spot 0.255 36 549 in 1 AND EVE is run_athletic
&EVE walks to spot 0.230 90 553 in 1 AND EVE is run_athletic
@EVE walks to spot 0.164 149 601 in 1 AND EVE is run_athletic

Like this? I’m not sure though, so I apologize if it doesn’t work, you can still try AND or THEN for the last one if there’s no other way to do it

You need to use does it while when a character is walking while doing an animation

@CHARACTER walks to [spot] and CHARACTER does it while [animation]

Your character pauses because you were using is instead of does it while
