This is a really cool command, really cool.
It’s a blessing to use in character customization and outfit dressing games.
With this command, you can get get those little arrows at the bottom.
"This command will take a choice that has more than 6 options and automatically create pages for it. You can use this command anywhere in your scripts you want to have multiple choice pages.
We hope that this will allow you to also in the future have an easier time creating choices with a lot of options! " - Quote from New Skin Tones and Updated Search
What does this mean? It means that there will be pages with six options each (the max) for the choice and the last page may have either 6 or a lower number, depending. Also, those little arrows at the bottom can be used to navigate through them.
Here’s an example of a CC choice that contains 14 options:
(P.S the first page I’ll put in blue. It will contain 6 options for the choice since that’s the max the [shouldPaginate: YES] command can have per page. Then I’ll put the the second page in red which again will have 6 options, so that makes 12 options total. The third page will have only 2 options, making that to a total of 14 options, which is what my example will show. The third page will be done in green. In addition, I’ll include another option for the third page in order to allow the reader to continue the story past that point.

Are you sure you’re done?
choice
“Yep”{
#continue
}“Nope”{
goto customization
}
#continue story
…AND THAT is all!
This is just an example I used but you can see [shouldPaginate: YES] in action. I used up to three pages, but you can have many more, with a max of six options per page.
Now I’ll show you visually.
The First Page, which can have a max of 6 options:
The Second Page, which can have a max of 6 options:
The Third Page, which can have a max of 6 options, but has less (If I went over 6 options, a fourth page is created which can have a max of 6 options and so forth):
I also want to state some people have used four/five of the options within a page for customization, changing into an outfit, etc. while the remaining two/one options say things like “DONE” or “change color” or something along that line. Hope this makes sense. And another thing, feel free to make the option(s) darker, golden or locked.
