@CHARACTER moves to layer #
Or
@CHARACTER spot % X Y in zone # at layer #

For overlays check this guide:

How do you create, and move an overlay half way through a scene?
I kinda know how to create it (not fully but not too badly) , but I don’t know how to get it to the right position, as when I place it, then write the numbers in, the overlay won’t show up in the same place.
Anyone know how to help?

[ItsYaGirlNai]

Um, I know I asked this earlier in the chat but I can’t find it, so ummm…but how do you get music to stop?

[Purple_Ghost]

@ItsYaGirlNai,

music stop

[ItsYaGirlNai]

so would i put the name of the music effect in place of the music

[Loulou123]

No, just the word “music”, or “sound” whichever works.

[ItsYaGirlNai]

It’s not working/

[EpisodeAfra]

EXT. CITY HIGHWAY LOOP - DAY with CAR ANGLE BROWN

music car_motor

@zoom reset

@overlay CAR ANGLE BROWN shifts to -311 0 in zone 1
@overlay CAR ANGLE BROWN scales to 1.000 1.000

@BOY spot 0.848 219 89 AND BOY faces right

@YOU spot 0.866 126 83 AND YOU faces right

@BOY starts idle_book_open_neutral_loop

@YOU starts idle_armscrossed_awkward_loop

    BOY
Ok, you're obviously overexaggerating.
Now tell me why you're really here.

    YOU (idle_armscrossed_angry_loop)
And why would I lie?

@BOY is laugh_giggle
BOY (talk_agree_happy)
Because you girls are always trying to make yourself seem bigger than you actually are.

sound stop

@YOU is scream_angry

    YOU (talk_armscrossed_angry_loop)
Stop the car!!

@YOU starts idle_armscrossed_angry_loop
@BOY is react_shocked_gasp

@BOY idle_flashlight_scared_loop and YOU is idle_jawdrop_awe_loop

[EpisodeAfra]

So you’re playing music not a sound so in the place of the “sound stop” replace it with a “music stop” and you’ll be good.

[ItsYaGirlNai]

Ive tried but the music is still playing
