Merging complex choices

[kweenKori]

So here’s the deal…
In the next chapter, there’s flashbacks and the clothes that the main performance was wearing that day must be the same as in the flashback. How do I do?

Rather than using gains, what I would personally do is use a twin character (of the MC) for the flashback . That “twin” would change at the same time as the MC (but be offscreen) and in the next chapter, they’d still be in the chosen outfit.

A simple command to create a twin (especially if your character is customisable) is @CHARACTER becomes [MC]

If you wanted to use gains for an outfit choice- you’d need an extra “Is this what you want to wear? Yes/No” choice for every single option (and then you’d have to use gains). You couldn’t just add gains under each option (without the yes/no choice) or the reader could potentially pick up every single gain if they tried on all the outfits.
You could also use named choices. There’s an example for dressing games here:
