HELP finding a choice problem in my story

T.Sofia · December 27, 2018, 10:03pm

I published chapter 11 of my story Living with the werewolf brothers.

And on chapter 11 I give a choice of dress and depending on the dress the reader will choose they get to dance with the boy they have selected.

But the readers that have selected ‘‘Sebastien dress’’ they get James instead. I re-read my script multiple times I tested on my mobile and it works fine for me and I make sure to reset story progress when I try each of the choices myself.

I can,t figure out the problem. Here is the script if anyone can help me.

Just to specify when they select Sebastien dress the MAC is wearing Seb’s dress choice but James is the one that comes and dance with her instead of Sebastien.

Jade.epi · December 27, 2018, 10:35pm

Possibly because they have selected one outfit choice then changed their minds. Because you have used gains, the readers cannot ‘ungain’ this. Within the outfit choices, you need to ask the reader to decide yes or no (for ALL choices) then add the gain with the YES. Or you will have to use the choice name method.

T.Sofia · December 27, 2018, 10:42pm

Thank you so much would you mind helping me further…Can you maybe give me an exemple with the template I should be doing … sorry it’s my first time doing gains with outfit choices like this…

Having the choice inside the outfit choice will allow the reader to go back and look at the other outfits without gaining the wrong flag
This way, the only time they will gain a flag is when they confirm the outfit they want to wear and the story will continue

T.Sofia · December 27, 2018, 11:00pm

OMG you helped me so much!!! Thankkk you again! I was going crazy trying to figure out the problem hahaha
