How do you make it so that when the player chooses a link, they can't choose it again once they return to that page? For example, in Snow, once you play a memory and go back, you can't choose that memory again. How do you do that?

"1. Go to Story Properties and go to the bottom. Click on the link that says [change editor features] .

2. Change Variables to advanced.

3. Make 3 links on the page you want.

4. Go to the little red stop sign next to one of the links and make sure you're on the page that says Link Restrictions in the pop-up window.

5. Above the button to save and close there should be some text saying Maximum number of uses and you click the drop down arrow and click number 1. Do that to all the links.

6. Now they won't be able to choose it again if they go back to that page."

Thanks Malk! You're the real MVP.

Hey, I didn't write the thing. Thank BZ. 

Well apparently neither did BZ. Who's Fergie?

Shit. I got so used to linking the same BZ article I get them mixed up. Yeah, fergie is another one of the people who contributed a bunch of scripting knowledge to the site. 

It's all good, thanks for the help.
