Alright, so I have no clue why I'm not allowed to make more then one passage with the same name. I figure it has something to do with the codding or whatever. Basically I need a way to either override this problem or for someone to point me in the direction of a software that can perform this task.

Why do you need some of your passages to have the same name?
Thank you for your explanation, I get why it's necessary for the engine now. The project I've been planning on requires me to have branching paths that must repeat in multiple occurrences. One path may have the exact same occurrence as another but play out differently based on the players choice. For example, let's say that you've chosen to be in the medieval age, and then must choose upon a "Power stone" you should be able to do the same in the modern era as well.
Still new at this myself but can you do what you are looking for with a "display" macro? You can write one passage and display it multiple times.
Say you have a variable named $era that can have two values (medieval and modern), and these value represent the current time period.
If you had a passage titled Power Stone, you could test the current value of the variable and output different text based on it.
You could just have 3 identical passages, Power Stone 1, Power Stone 2, and Power Stone 3, then refer to them all in links like this:
[[Power Stone|Power Stone 1]]
[[Power Stone|Power Stone 2]]
[[Power Stone|Power Stone 3]]
Every passage will be named as "Power Stone" in your story then.
