I'm trying to use transitions (mostly dissolve) to switch between my character sprites, but I don't want the chatbox to disappear every single time that happens (and, if possible, also make the text continue immediately without it having to wait until the transition finishes). Is there a workaround for this problem?
x "I'd like to go swimming today."
show y happy #At this point, the chatbox disappears.
with dissolve #During the transition, no text will appear.
#
y "That would be great!"
This may have been asked already, but I couldn't find any posts regarding it. If so, my apologies.
