Hi, can someone please, help, I am new to Episode and almost giving up. How do I get my characters to sit down on their chairs in INT. COFFEE SHOP FROM STAGE OL - NIGHT background(limelight) I have followed a few ideas here but to no avail.
This is what I have tried: INT. COFFEE SHOP FROM STAGE OL - NIGHT with INT. COFFEE SHOP FROM STAGE OL - NIGHT at layer 0 @cut to zone 3 @TINA sits screen right AND TINA faces right @JAY sits lower screen left AND JAY faces left @pause for a beat
This is not a vaild command. It is @CHARACTERstands screen center AND CHARACTER is sit
@CHARACTER stands screen left AND CHARATCER faces left
You will have to use spot directing if you want them lower/higher, small/bigger.
Here are two videos I reccomend watching: Basic spotting Spot directing
[This video is in INK but you can just change the animations to LL(LimeLight) ones.]
Yep! I know, that it is. I have been coding on here for a year and I still need help sometimes. Just watch those video and that might help. Joseph Evans is rhe creator of them and he is very helpful.
Thanks for your help, yesterday. So I tried the sitting positions and they don’t seem to work, I even changed the background and that turned into a mess. One is now standing on the table and the character, I don’t even know what they are doing. Any help please?

This place is lush!
JAY (talk_squat_happy)
It is nice! I come here when ever I want a break.
@pause for 20
JAY (talk_agree_happy)
I can’t believe those scum bags tried to rob you.
TINA (talk_apathetic)
I know! I think they were high on something, they probably wanted the money for more drugs.
JAY (laugh_giggle)
Did you see his face though ,the one you kicked in the crotch? It was hilarious.
TINA (laugh_chuckle)
Cowards!
JAY (talk_armsraised_neutral)
Where did you learn to fight like that?
TINA (talk_armscrossed_neutral_loop)
My brother taught me and I also took a few defence classes.
JAY (think_rubchin)
(wait! Am I turned on by this?)
TINA (talk_think_neutral)
(I hope he is not intimidated by a girl who can defend herself)
JAY (talk_armsraised_neutral)
I saw you at Jane's party, are you friends?
TINA (talk_agree_happy)
Her sister, Tendai is actual my best friend,we went to universty together, you?
Thanks for your help. I cracked the code for sitting and having them where I want them. If there is something I can do for you in return let me know. Maybe read some of your stories if you want lol.
