Syncing my characters while they grind

Hello Lovelies! I’m currently working on starting my first story. I’ve made it through the first episode, and I’m on to the second! I’m currently trying to write a dancing scene. I believe I have all of the correct commands, but I’m struggling to get my two characters to sync together to essentially dance together. It’s almost like the female needs to stand a bit more to the right to dance closer to him.

Posting a part of the scene as well:

RILEY (admire_happy)
Looks like they were thinking the same thing!

@cut to zone 3
@MADISON stands screen center
@MADISON faces left
@ERIC stands screen right
@ERIC faces left

@ERIC is dance_grind_neutral_loop AND MADISON is dance_grind_neutral_loop

It would probably be easier if you spot directed them, rather than using the screen center and right. If you’d be willing to share the code for your scene, I could sort out for you what the spots should be?

I’m still new to terms and such, but I’ve never spot directed before. Do you want me to share what I have written for the entire part of that scene?

Ok this should work im not sure what background your using so you might have to move them a bit:

@zoom on 160 284 to 100% in 0
@ERIC spot 1.280 189 43
@ERIC moves to layer 2
@MADISON spot 1.280 191 35
@MADISON moves to layer 3
@MADISON faces left and ERIC faces left
@ERIC is dance_grind_neutral_loop AND MADISON is dance_grind_neutral_loop
