FYOP/Scenario Chamber/HowToUpdate
This is a guide for anyone interested in editing or contributing to "Scenario Chamber" FYOP. I've had a few requests from others interested in adding their own content / chambers - if you're one of these people, this page should get you started.
This is also very much a WIP and not intended for public consumption - so if you've stumbled on to the page, avert your eyes! Or DM me if you have any questions, I'm long_time_lurker on Discord. Also, the formatting is atrocious, I need to figure out how to clean this up :P
Getting Started With Twine
Scenario Chamber is written in SugarCube, a language / story format for Twine. If you're unfamiliar with Twine, this tutorial seems like a good place to start!
Editing Scenario Chamber
Next, you'll want a copy of the Scenario Chamber html file. Opening this in Twine will give you a view of the sprawling mess!
Adding Your Chamber
Use Twine's Story->Find and Replace feature to locate Hub/Chambers (Twine will highlight any passage with this title, as well as any passages that link to it - there will be 3 in all, all located in the top left corner).
Opening up the Hub/Chambers passage, you'll see a list of objects being set, e.g:
<<set $girlNextDoor = { "name" : "girl next door", "prefix" : "Girl", }>>\
This defines how the chamber is shown to the player (in this case, "girl next door") and how to find the corresponding confirmation page (here, it would be "Confirm/Girl") as well as the chamber's starting page (and whether or not the player has visited the chamber).
You'll want to add your own object with a name and prefix for your chamber, and also add it to the $chambers list of available chambers.
<<set $chambers = [$girlNextDoor, $witch, $opera, $hero, $class, $hike]>>\
Confirmation Page
Make a passage entitled Confirm/<your prefix>, e.g. Confirm/Girl for 'girl next door'.
For the body if this page (if you're staying consistent with Scenario Chamber) you'll want to give a sneak-peak of any bots the player might encounter, plus a Y/N confirmation. Open up the any of the ___/Confirm pages to see an example, and note that the 'Y' option should link to a ___/Start page.
Initialize Chamber Variable
Finally, you'll want to include a line initializing your scenario chamber variable within the StoryInit passage. e.g. <<set $girlnextdoor to false>> (TODO - Why do I do this?!)
Once complete, any player should be able to visit your chamber. Now it's just a matter of adding content!
