Story structure
Story structure
How a project is organized into chapters and scenes, how the flow view draws the graph, and how a story ends.
A project holds chapters. A chapter holds scenes. A scene holds a script of beats. That is the whole hierarchy, and the last level is the only one covered elsewhere: beats live in Writing.
The part that makes it a game is what happens between scenes. A scene runs its script and then looks for an edge out. Edges can carry conditions, so the same scene can lead three different places depending on what the reader has done. The flow view is that graph, drawn.
