Instructions
1. Add the main script to the Visionaire Studio Script Editor & set the script as a definition script.
2. To change the current scene...
changeScene("scene_name", 3, 500) -- fade in/out over 500ms
Main Script
function changeScene(scn, typ, duration, fe, fd)
fe = game.FadeEffect -- store fade effect
fd = game.FadeDelay -- store fade delay
-- + --
if typ < 0 then typ = 0 elseif typ > 10 then typ = 10 end -- fallback in case fade effect is less than 0 or more than 10
game.FadeEffect = typ -- update fade effect to specified fade effect
game.GameFadeDelay = duration -- update fade duration to specified fade duration
-- + --
game.CurrentScene = Scenes[scn]
-- + --
setDelay(duration, function() -- restore previous scene effects
game.FadeEffect = fe -- restore fade effect back to stored fade effect
game.FadeDelay = fd -- restore fade duration back to stored fade duration
end)
end
