I’m new to coding, and over the last few days I’ve been gradually trying to teach myself how to do it. I’m struggling with my characters entering a scene when I’ve already got characters in there.
This is an example of my script;
@MAT spot 0.897 55 215 in zone 1 at layer 1
@MAT walks to spot 0.891 57 215 in zone 2 in 5
@zoom on 0 0 to 100% in 0
MAT (callout_neutral)
Hey Leo! There slagging us off again!
@LEO spot 0.897 300 215 in zone 1 at layer -1
@LEO walks to spot 0.891 282 215 in zone 2 in 5
@LEO faces left

How do I make the characters entering the scene come in faster? Theres too much of a long pause,
Thanks in advance

@MAT walks to spot 0.891 57 215 in zone 2 in 5
&LEO spot 0.897 300 215 in zone 1 at layer -1
