ADVICE - how to....script

Hello,

Does anyone have the code template for the following?

At the start of a story some authors put, play episode and skip episode option… how do I do this?

Thanks

choice
“Watch episode( or whatever you want it to say)”{
NARRATOR
Ok thanks for reading

}“Skip episode”{
Goto skip_episode

}

At the end of the episode where you want the last choice to bring the readers put

label skip_episode

And it will bring the readers to wherever you put that label

Great, I’ll do this now, thank you.

Oh, it is saying - Choices must follow a dialogue immediately, not a branch.

you have to put it like this
NARRATOR
Would you like to skip this chapter?
choice
“Yes, I would like to SKIP this chapter” {
goto end_chapter
} “No, I would like to READ this chapter” {
goto start_chapter
}

label start_chapter

######### WHOLE CHAPTER CODING #########

INT. BLACK - NIGHT

label end_chapter

NARRATOR
To be continued…

hope it helped
(just replace the part with # with actual coding :hugs:)
You can edit the choices
and if you want I can put the ‘Are you sure?’ part if you’d like

If you want it like normal choice:

label menu
NARR
What do you want to do?
choice
"start chapter" {

} “skip chapter” {
NARR
Are you sure you want to skipp this chapter?
choice
"YES - skip it" {
goto storyend
} “No, I messed up” {
goto menu
}
}
########################################
NARR
Here write your story

########################################x
label storyend
NARR
To be continued

But this is usually done as a tappable menu with using overlays
