Quick Question?

I'm brand new to the site and don't want to waste my muse. :P
Is there a simple way for the player to choose their character's name, or is it a really complicated process Id be better off working around?

It can be done with scripting, I believe. But it wouldn't be simple at all. I wouldn't recommend learning to script for your first storygame.

yes. it is VERY complicated. because for each name, you need to re create the storygame. you'd be better off choosing the name for them.

You're wrong, it can be done with scripting. But it's still complicated.

Better off just reading up on how to script, ask someone who knows how to do it, or just forget about it. But you know. If you just do what CYOA books do, have the game mention the reader as simply YOU, it's the same principle. They would just replace the word YOU with their name.
