The episode started with Marinette in her default episode, but when I had her change into a new outfit, it overwrote the default and now she’s just wearing her new outfit in the beginning of the episode.

I think you can just put
@ MARINETTE changes into MARINETTE_default
at the start
(Im not sure, I myself just started coding, but this should work)

I’ll try that! Thanks!

It’s just because it remembers what she was wearing last. If you reset your progress and then play it again, she’ll be in the default. And that’s what the readers will see.

Totally unrelated BUT

FYI if you’re thinking about doing a miraculous ladybug story on episode you might have to change it A LOT because that would be plagiarism & against guidelines. (not trying to discourage you, just trying to inform you):smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
