Tappable overlay isn't tapping

[notguiltea]

Hi guys,
Sorry to make yet another topic! When I click the overlays, nothing happens
Here’s my script with the CC redacted:

INT. BLACK - DAY
@pause for 3

INT. WARNING
@zoom reset
@cut to zone 1
@pause for 4

INT. INTRO

@overlay BEGINBUTTON create

@overlay BEGINBUTTON moves to layer 2

@overlay BEGINBUTTON opacity 1

@overlay BEGINBUTTON shifts to 4 114 in zone 1

@overlay BEGINBUTTON scales to 0.622 0.622

@overlay CUSTOMISE create

@overlay CUSTOMISE moves to layer 2

@overlay CUSTOMISE opacity 1

@overlay CUSTOMISE shifts to 5 28 in zone 1

@overlay CUSTOMISE scales to 0.622 0.622

@overlay QANDA create

@overlay QANDA moves to layer 2

@overlay QANDA opacity 1

@overlay QANDA shifts to 5 -62 in zone 1

@overlay QANDA scales to 0.622 0.622

@pause for 1000

label GAME_MENU
tappable
“BEGIN.”{
goto BEGIN

}“CUSTOMISE”{
goto CUSTOMISE

}“QANDA”{
goto QANDA
}

label BEGIN
@pause for 0
NARRATOR
|no-space| BEGIN
@pause for 0

label CUSTOMISE

@pause for 0

label femlcc_custom_0

@AURELIA stands screen center and AURELIA faces right and AURELIA starts idle

    NARRATOR
What do you look like?

label femlcc_0_end
NARRATOR
Are you happy with how you look?
choice
“Yes, I look gorgeous!” {
readerMessage Follow @dara.amarie.ep on Instagram! with messageTitle Customization Template Credit
@AURELIA is primp_neutral
} “No, I want to change something.” {
goto femlcc_custom_0
}

    NARRATOR

|no-space| CUSTOMISE

goto GAME_MENU

label QANDA

    NARRATOR

|no-space| QANDA

If you wanted to you could have your CC scene within the actual CUSTOMIZE tappable branch. Same thing with the QANDA scene (have the QANDA scene in the QANDA tappable branch).

BEGIN is fine how it is, but you could remove what’s within it and leave it blank as well as remove the BEGIN label because once it’s pressed, it will still bypass the others and continue on with the story.

You don’t need “|no-space|“ either…

@notguiltea

“BEGIN.”{

You also have a full-stop here and your overlay is called “BEGINBUTTON” not “BEGIN”

Is the problem that the tappable overlays isn’t responding? If so I think it’s because you need to put the overlay name in the " ".

You have this in your script:
tappable
“BEGIN.”{
goto BEGIN

}

I can’t see that you have a overlay with the name BEGIN. so perhaps that can be the problem.
Try this instead:

tappable
“BEGINBUTTON”{
goto BEGIN

}

[notguiltea]

Ah, thank you!
When finishing the CC, it doesn’t automatically take me back to the main menu, how can I do this?

[notguiltea]

Ah thank you, I removed the “NARRATOR: BEGIN” lines and moved my CC into the CUSTOMISE branch, however, the buttons still aren’t tapping

[schittwriter]

Can you share a screenshot of your script?

[Lily.v]

What you can do is write “goto MAIN_MENU” within the choice “Yes, I look gorgeous.”. I think that should work.

[notguiltea]

I tried to crop out all of the CC as that seems to be working fine

[notguiltea]

It’s now saying there is a { without a matching } on these lines:
label GAME_MENU
tappable
“BEGINBUTTON”{
goto BEGINBUTTON

}“CUSTOMISE”{

label femlcc_custom_0

EXT. BLUE - DAY

But I’m not sure where the } should go!

[schittwriter]

Line 1409: this bracket } instead of this one {
Line 1412: I don’t think you need that extra bracket.

[Lily.v]

Schittwriter seems to have found the mistake for you

A small tip though: It looks like you have the whole template in your “customise” button, instead I would make a label to get more order. That way it’s easier to find those mistakes.

[notguiltea]

It still is completely not working, would anyone be able to write my tappable overlays menu for me, please?
I will give credit!

I’ll help you out. Can you send me the overlays :)?

[Raitlyn]

Isn’t the code for tapable overlays

Maybe try replacing @overlay with &ui

Idk, I’m probably wrong

[Winteronepisode]

Ui only pastes an overlay to the screen like a sticker. Useful when zooming/panning across scenes with overlays such as binoculars.

[Raitlyn]

Oops Sorry

[Winteronepisode]

Lmao no need to apologize! Ui use is often confused with that exact thing

[Farah_DeSantis]

have you checked that you overlays arent overlaping?
