Hi,
I'm creating a twine for a university project and I'm way over my head. Firstly, I'm using twine 1.4. Secondly, I have no idea what I'm doing.
I want to make a poem generator in which the 'player' generates a poem based on photo choices. Each photo will have a line of poetry attached to it. Each passage will contain two photos to choose between. At the end of the generator, a poem will be revealed to the 'player' based on their choices. I hope that make sense.
I gather so far in my research that I need to make photos into links (eg. [img[fish][slide2]] ). I've got that down lol but how do i assign a hidden piece of text to that photo/choice that will be revealed at the end ? Somef thing with variables that I don't quite understand. If someone out there could walk me through the basics of how I would do this, or point me in the direction

Since you have no idea what you're doing, you're probably using one of the Twine 1.4 vanilla story formats unfortunately, which, IIRC, do not support setter components on the image markup. Thus, you'll probably need to use a unique passage for each image link to achieve the effect you want. For example, I'd probably recommend something like the following: (in Twee notation)
At the end, you'd simply check the values of the variables to create your poem. For example:
Hopefully, you get the idea.
