Hey! Thanks for your comment. Unfortunately, what you suggest is not in line with the vision of the software itself. I hope the program is still useful to you for other ideas!
Wow! Your engine is the best, because of its simplicity. And I like how the end product looks. Some engines tend to have a tacky way of presenting buttons/options. This engine makes crisp looking novels.
I have to feature requests (if possible). Which would make this engine (in my opinion perfect).
1) May you add a tick box or a way to ensure that readers can NOT move ahead to the page until the SFX/sound file finishes playing. I intend to use the SFX option to upload mp3 narration. But, currently, people can keep going before the SFX file finishes playing
2) Would you consider adding a "node randomiser" which selects a random node from a set/group of node options. For example: if someone selects a choice, the choice will be attached to a "randomiser" which has multiple nodes that are slightly different.
That second feature would allow authors to make replayable novels, with slight variations (randomized variations). Where the nodes carry slightly different dialogue/text
Do you think these 2 features are doable? I personally think they will take your engine to the next level. If version 1 can include that, I can't imagine anything else that I would need... because, everything else is already there.
Thank you very much for reading my feedback and requests
I like your recommendations and I think I could try to add them. I don't have access to a computer right now, but in a week or two I'll try to do so and upload the update.
I am very happy to hear from you. I think those 2 things I suggested will make it possible to start making the kinda novels that I've ben wanting to make. You've built a special engine here. Thank you!

Hello! I'm glad to finally see some feedback!

Thank you for your comment :)
I'm glad you found it useful and intuitive.
It's very light and well-made.

I will keep checking for an updated version.
Hi! The new patch is now available (0.9.11) adding the two requested features and fixing an HTML import bug!
I hope it works and helps you tell your stories! I'd love to see the results in the future :)
Thank you very much! You are amazing, I have never seen a responsive dev like you, and I just downloaded the updated version.
I will definitely share projects with you.
I am very happy!
