So I’m wanting them to laugh at the start of the scene so it just doesn’t pop right into dialogue, yet they keep skipping over it? I’ve tried multiple things like adding pauses to the end adding and @ sign and then a & and nothing is working. Can somebody help??

Have you tried putting a ‘’@’’ instead of ‘’&’’ HAYDEN spot 1.001 115 190 AND YOU spot 0.929 206 202 AND HAYDEN faces right AND YOU faces left?

yeah i have and for some reason it still wouldn’t work?

Then what about writing ‘‘starts’’ laugh_chuckle? instead of ‘‘is’’

I figured something out, I have no idea what I did but it worked :joy:
