I made a dressup mini game but it's not working

I was looking for a template for a dress up overlay game and I found one that worked pretty well. Until it didn’t. The checkmark doesn’t work! And I’m pretty sure that the back arrow doesn’t work either.

Here is the template I used…

And here’s what I typed…
(I should change into something more comfortable. I don’t need to be in my uniform right now.)

You need to choose an outfit first.
goto dress
}

Can someone tell me what is wrong? How do I fix this?

What isn’t working?

the overlays don’t really work

did you make them tappable

yes
It only randomizes which outfit to wear

Hmm do you have a gain?

no, the template I followed didn’t have one

This is the template I used

Do you know anyone who could help me?

I’m not that good with overlays, but I’ll try.
I noticed there’s a part that says goto tap, and the label tap is by another outfit… so after you change into MCF_sunflower it brings you to MCF_herring? (I think?) I’m a little confused… I’m going to insert this into script, make some characters and outfits, and take a look at what’s wrong.

okay afterwards try your best to find whats wrong

I also found a template that doesn’t work :frowning:
This is what I did for this one

check if the overlay does not overlap each other- then they cant work.
With overlap I mean when you preview it and tap the spot directing / change overlay. - you see a rectangle around the overlay.

If these overlays do overlap you will not be able to tap the one which is under the other

even it what you see on screen is small if there is a lot of transparent space (as a part of the overlay) - script understands the overlay as big one = the rectangle will be big

also I am positive this template works 100% if you will use it right and use daras overlays

ooh okay thank you for saving me from not having to put this whole thing in script just to find out what’s wrong…
@RedHerring I think you’ve found your solution :wink:
