Help with Links

frigglefroogle

Hello,
I am a new user to Twine.

I have a branching path like this:

A sound jolts you awake.

Get up

Lay in bed

And 2 new boxes show up: "Get up" and "Lay in Bed". When the "Lay in Bed" option is chosen this is shown:

You lay in bed for a while, but the silence begins to bother you.

But at this point i want to return back to the option "Get up", so i add this:

You get out of bed->Get up.

but a new box pops up instead of an arrow connecting to the original get up box.

Am what I trying to do accomplishable? What am i doing wrong?


Thank you!

Hi!

There is an issue with white spaces in your first examples, where you are creating two new links that have one space before and after the passage names.

[[ Get up ]]
[[ Lay in bed ]]

While in this example there is no white space around the passage name.

You [[get out of bed->Get up]]

So you end up with two passages: one with the white space and one without.
If you want to only have one passage, I suggest that you rewrite the first links like this:

[[Get up]]
[[Lay in bed]]
