I’m trying to direct a car pulling up to the sidewalk with my character driving, but the character just isn’t moving with the car?? even though i don’t see a problem with my script…

EXT. GREY TOWNHOUSE - NIGHT

&zoom on 170 141 to 261% in 0

&overlay CAR ANGLE SILVER create

&overlay CAR ANGLE SILVER shifts to -192 79

&overlay CAR ANGLE SILVER scales to 0.316 0.316

&overlay CAR ANGLE SILVER shifts to layer 1

&overlay CAR ANGLE SILVER opacity 1

&CHARACTER spot 0.308 57 269

&CHARACTER moves to layer 0

@transition fade in

&CHARACTER walks to spot spot 0.308 178 262 in 2 and CHARACTER does it while idle and CHARACTER faces right

@overlay CAR ANGLE SILVER shifts to 24 82 in 2
