So, i’ve been struggling in the past 30 mins trying to make my character blush, but it’s just not working.
I used this code:

INT. LOCKER ROOM - DAY with RED COP LIGHT in zone 2

@overlay RED COP LIGHT create
@overlay RED COP LIGHT shifts to 172 433 in zone 2
@overlay RED COP LIGHT scales to 0.045 0.045 in zone 2
@overlay RED COP LIGHT opacity 1 in 0

and the overlay stays in zone two, but the scene keeps moving to zone one.
You know? like when you type ‘@pan to zone x’

Can someone please help me? Thanks

For the overlays get rid on “in zone” and try that?

Why’d you write it Both in the background and as a create thing? I’m pretty sure you don’t Have to do that. But What do i know I never use the create command.

I tried that, it keeps doing the same thing

Do something like this instead
&overlay RED COP LIGHT create AND overlay RED COP LIGHT shifts to 172 433 in zone 2 AND overlay RED COP LIGHT scales to 0.045 0.045 in zone 2 AND overlay RED COP LIGHT opacity 1 in 0

@overlay RED COP LIGHT create
&overlay RED COP LIGHT shifts to 172 433 in zone 2 in 0
&overlay RED COP LIGHT scales to 0.045 0.045 in zone 2 in 0
&overlay RED COP LIGHT opacity 1 in 0

Does that work?
