Duplicate a story to try new ideas

Story editors can make an unpublished copy from the story page. The copy includes the saved scenes, choices, variables, media and collaborators, while games stay with the original.

A clearer, more consistent interface

Brighter colours and clearer status badges work across light and dark mode. Initials avatars use brighter colours with contrasting text; uploaded photos are unchanged. Page headings follow a consistent style, and account people are grouped under a clearer section heading.

Reliable editor profile badges

Profile badges update when the editor connects, including when the first presence update arrives before the connection is ready.

More compact editor controls

Play test now sits beside Search. Both use icon buttons with hover labels to leave more space in the editor toolbar.

Keep game cards within smaller screens

Long story titles no longer push game cards beyond the screen on mobile. Titles shorten to fit the available space.

See estimated scene start times and a story overview

Timed routes show estimated scene start times beside node IDs and in the node inspector. Open Overview from the clock in the editor toolbar to see estimated play time, connected paths, the range of choice nodes per path, endpoints and timing coverage. Node time badges stay hidden when a start time cannot be calculated.

See who's working on a node

When more than one person is in the editor, coloured profile badges show who is viewing a node or has unsaved changes. Hover over a badge to see their name. Yellow outlines also show other editors' unsaved changes.

Clearer editor toolbar

Variables, Play test and Save are grouped together, with Search and Help in a separate group.

Review story issues in the editor

Open the issue count beside the story title to find scenes without text, incomplete choices, missing choice destinations and incomplete timings. Select an issue to jump to its node. Checks update when you apply changes.

Zoom out further in the editor

Zoom out to 10% to see more of a large story at once.
