Pannable, tappable & timed Mini Game

[MdSava]

Hey,

Does anyone has any idea how to make this type of mini game (pannable, tappable and timed at the same time)?

This example is from the story “Black Magic” by E R Gurney (she herself doesn’t want to share the knowledge ) :

i tried to do that, but apparently you can’t :(( i read some comments where someone said that they just made the overlay’s opacity 0 in a specific amount of time, though. hope this helps

These links might help. I’m not sure how exactly it works though tbh.

A Basic Guide to Tappable Overlays

Please note: this is still in BETA testing. The code may change, which would cause issues with your script in the future. A Guide to Tappable Overlays Hello all! Today I am going to be giving a review and guide to a new feature Episode has added, called “tappable overlays”. If you are unsure what these are – don’t worry, I’ll get into that in just a little bit. Before that, though, I must give credit to the templates that taught me how to use tappable overlays in the first place: …

If someone could do that, then it’s possible

i’m a huge huge huge fan of your story ‘lost’, by the way. it’s absolutely amazing

Me too

Thank you girls

Just asking… So tappable & timed choice works, but not the pannable, tappable & timed choice?

[episode.mistletoe]

unfortunately, no

[MdSava]

I know only how to do tappable + pannable:

tappable [pan:1:3]
“OV1”{

}“OV2”{

}

And tappable + timed:

tappable [timed:30:hidden]
“OV1”{

}“OV2”{

}

Tried to combine them, but it didn’t work.

Maybe she used pauses or something?

[episode.mistletoe]

maybe you can try like
&pause for 30 THEN overlay OVERLAY opacity 0 in 0
tappable [pan:1:3]
“OVERLAY” {
} “ELSE” {
}

i really don’t know, tell me if it works i guess

[HazelJ]

Yup there must be a way. I’m curious too
Probably it is not in episode’s feature? It is either there’s a specific format to combine the ‘‘tappable & pannable’’ and “tappable & timed” coding, or a completely different format of coding…
Apparently this question has been asked before & no solution has been found
Maybe IT experts know how. Like those real game creators etc.
Btw… I’m a fan of yours. Do make a tutorial video if you’ve found the solution

[HazelJ]

I did thought of that too… Like it’s sth to do with pause, ol, opacity. Maybe the whole bg is covered with another layer of it’s own ol? (if u know what i mean)… I’m quite new in epi so still unsure. I’ll try that when i log in to the writer portal

[MdSava]

I will try to play around with it, thanks for the idea!

[episode.mistletoe]

yes!! tell me if it works i really wanna know

[MdSava]

Sure!

[MdSava]

There was a white background in the end that I needed to tap and only after that the game has ended. So maybe it’s really something like this: &pause for 20 THEN overlay OVERLAY opacity 100% in 0 AND overlay OVERLAY to layer 10

[HazelJ]

Maybe… I’ll try around when i have time.

It is either this, or a specific code to combine pannable & timed, or… only specific people knows how
