display action at the same page

[Patrick Simon]

hi, i serching for a chance to display text at the same page after a action.

i mean:

You find a ring. Do you want to wear it?


Yes
No

 

Now i want to display text at the same page.

Yes = You put it on your finger
No = You put it in your backpack


 

How can i do that? I am using Sugarcube

Hi Patrick! Thank you for being interested in Twine!

Hmmm. The way I would do this is with the Glorious Trainwrecks <<replace>> macro, 

which is available here: http://www.glorioustrainwrecks.com/node/5029

With more details here: http://www.glorioustrainwrecks.com/node/5462

Install the given JavaScript AND the CSS, and you can do a lot of things with this set of macros--replace text depending on the number of times a passage has been visited, for instance, or reveal text based on something a user has clicked.

    You find a ring. Do you want to wear it?

    <<replace>>Yes<<becomes>>You put it on your finger.<<endreplace>>

    <<replace>>No<<becomes>>You put it in your backpack.<<endreplace>>

This isn't a complete solution, but it gives you an idea of what's possible.

Note that the Glorious Trainwrecks <<replace>> macro works with Sugarcane and Jonah story formats. With some tweaking, I'm sure they'd work with Sugarcube, too. I'm investigating how.

Hope this helps, and happy Twining!
