Remove them from the scene and then you can have them walk back in for a couple of seconds by using
@pause for #
Then when you want the character to walk back into the scene put
@CHAR walks to _____
screen commands
back far left
back far right
upscreen left
upscreen right
screen left
screen right
screen center
Or if you want them to walk to a specific spot you say
@CHAR walks to spot x y z in s
If you want them to be doing a specific animation you just add an animation after the command
ei) @CHAR walks to spot x y z in s AND CHAR is (animation) (no parenthisis)
S- is the number of seconds you want them to be walking for
