The episode writers portal are saying these aren't "valid directing commands"

Hey!!

All my coding was good. But then I get an error saying they aren’t valid?
Like they were absolutely fine, I hadn’t changed anything about it.

@NAME stands screen center in zone 2 at layer 0 AND NAME faces right AND NAME is text_phone_neutral_loop
@EMILY stands back right in zone 3 at layer 1 AND EMILY faces left AND EMILY is idle_handsonhips_neutral_loop

I have no idea what made the error come up :sob:

at layer 0 has to be NAME moves to layer 0

same with at layer 1

I never learned my basic positions correctly, I pretty much went straight to spot directing so I don’t know all my basic spots. But shouldn’t it be upscreen right, not back right? Srry if I’m wrong

If you ever need these in the future, the comands are
upscreen left
up screen right
screen left
screen right
screen center
back far left
back far right

I usually use these as pointers to where I want the charecters to be, and then when I preview the story I put them where I want and , change it in the script

Thanks! I didn’t know back far left and back far right existed :sweat_smile:
