I need one of my character to slide from under the covers to scare somebody. Please help.
- Have a bed background
- Place character on the bed (@CHAR1 spot % X Y in zone # at layer # AND CHAR1 faces left/right)
- Add a cover overlay
- Make sure the cover overlay is at a higher layer than the character so it’s on top of them.
Ex.
INT. BED BACKGROUND with COVERS to % X Y in zone # at layer #
- Place the character higher, so they show and copy those new coordinates into your script. You’d make them come up like this: @CHAR1 walks to spot % X Y in S AND CHAR1 does it while nonwalking_animation THEN CHAR1 is another_animation
- I highly suggest to leave the %-contols height-and X-moving left, right-unchanged and only change the Y, which controls up, down movement (ex. having the character go up or down)
%, X, Y, S, # - must be replaced with numbers (S stands for the time, in seconds)
For the direction, must pick either left or right (not both)
nonwalking_animation = pick a non walking animation that exists so they slide up.
another_animation = a random animation the character does when they finished sliding up (one that exists).
Hopefully I didn’t make this more confusing, if you have any questions, feel free to ask
