Is there any way to have Chapter A lead to Chapter B or C, and have both Chapters B & C lead to D? I played around with Chapter Linking and it seems like the best I can do is have B and C lead back to A and have D branched directly off of A.
I may be misinterpreting your comment, but if not, I think the problem is simply a misunderstanding of link chapters. So, if you want to have the following two routes possible: 1. A -> B -> D 2. A -> C -> D All you need to do is the following steps: 1. Write chapter A. 2. Write chapters B and C as new chapters branching from A. 3. Write chapter D as a new chapter branching from B. 4. Add a Link Chapter to C that sends the user to chapter D (If you are unfamiliar with this process, it is as follows: create the new chapter after C and select the "Link Chapter" option in the right bar. A box will appear asking you the chapter you want to reference, and you can type chapter D's name until it appears as an autocomplete. Give the link chapter a title, usually the same as chapter D's, post the chapter and you should be good to go). I just ran through these steps in an unposted test story and confirmed. Hope this helps.
No you got it right and I appreciate the help. When I clicked on the linked Chapter when I was playing around with it, I think it threw me just a little bit. Thanks again.
have a similar question that relates closely to this. I hope someone can help. Continuing the example above, where you want these branches: 1. A -> B -> D 2. A -> C -> D Suppose you give chapter D different titles from their branches off chapters B and C. I know that chapter 2D will still lead to 1D, because they're linked, and the main content will be all the same, but will the chapter titles be the same? To put the same question another way, in case the above is not clear: will you have different titles showing on the screen for chapter D depending on whether you arrived at that chapter from B or C?
The structure as used above is Code: A -> B -> D(chapter) -> C -> D(link) The chapter title given to D(chapter) will be shown as the chapter option of B. The chapter title given to D(link) will be shown as the chapter option of C. When you choose D(chapter) or D(link), chapter D(chapter) gets opened and the shown title will be the title of D(chapter). So it doesn't matter where you came from. No. If you want the chapter options both be different from the chapter title that is shown when one option is chosen, you can use a workaround. So you would need a structure similar to Code: A -> B -> D1(chapter) -> D2(link) -> C -> D3(link) Chapter D1(chapter) is the chapter that should be shown, no matter where the reader came from. As it would be a child chapter of B, it would appear as a chapter option. To avoid the reader choosing it, you need to add a condition to the chapter that can't be met. To hide the option, you can use the respective story option that will hide all chapters that can't be accessed by the user because their score doesn't meet the conditions. (If you don't hide the chapter, the reader can't choose D1 but the chapter title of D1 will still be shown.) D2 and D3 would both link to D1. These link chapters can have different titles that will show as the respective chapter options.
