pen-to-squareCustomizing Scenarios

This page contains information about what happens when User clicks the Customize button on a scenario that has open customization.

The Customize button as seen by User

When the Customize button is enabled on a scenario, you can click it to customize/modify that scenario.

The Customization toggle as seen by the original Scenario Creator

On the scenario creator's end, allowing scenario customization is toggled ON by default.

Modified Scenario

When you click Customize, a copy of the original scenario (called modified scenario) will be created.

Limited publishing options of a Modified Scenario

It will have the following differences from the original:

  • The modified scenario uses the original scenario name + Modified. This can be changed. Double-check and change the scenario title as necessary because the added "Modified" on the title may make the number of characters go over the character limit.

  • The modified scenario is set to Private by default. This cannot be changed. This is a feature that was put in place to prevent Users from outright copying and re-publishing the scenarios of fellow Users.

  • The modified scenario can be changed without affecting the original scenario. Vice versa, any changes to the original scenario will not affect the modified scenario.

  • The modified scenario has limited publishing options. On a modified scenario, you can only change Force/Separate User Character. You cannot publish the modified scenario publicly, allow comments, etc.

  • The modified scenario may go over the limits of each section. This happens when a free tier User modifies a scenario that was created by a FictionLab+ user. Consider the limitations of your tier when modifying scenarios.
