@thatonegirlsyrai,

If you are talking about you the author changing the hair, just use @CHARACTER changes hair into HAIR. The hair will stay as whatever you changed it to until you change it again. Web previewer may not show it however.

How do you allow your readers to customize their characters?

@Christocleas,

You create a base character, such as YOU, then you add a customization template either from another author or the script template on the side of the writers portal.

Hi! I wanted to ask how can we customize several characters in an episode? Because when I try with the templates, it has troubles with labels and gotos since they’re the same ones. Thanks!

Check this link above; you can customize up to 6 characters!

And does anyone know how long on avg does it take for the episode team to review backgrounds/ your own art (that you want to add to stories)?

It usually takes a few days, but if you lucky sometimes it’s seconds :joy:

  1. How do you transition parts in a story like someone is daydreaming?
  2. How do you add sound and remove it?
40

  1. I use:
    SCENE 1
    @transition fade out white 2
    SCENE 2
    @transition fade in white 2
    Any color transition will work.

  2. For a sound use:
    sound SOUND and sound off
    Sound should automatically end once it is played through.
    For music:
    music MUSIC and music off
    Music will keep playing until stopped.
