Structuration

NarrativeCraft follows a simple structuration with chapters and scenes.

You have a chapter that contains the main topic, and you have scenes that separate it by parts.

Chapters are sorted by index, and scenes too meaning that if you first chapter is foo and your first scene is bar, then the player will start the story with chapter foo and scene bar.

Each scene starts with a new objective, a new environment, to have a clean save point.

• chapters
• characters
