Overview
The Scenario Timeline is the sandbox view of your what-if structure. It shows the proposed order and lets you test movement before applying anything to the main story.
When Should I Use This?
Use it while exploring an alternate scene order, testing chapter placement or checking whether a reveal lands better elsewhere.
How To Use It
Move scenes within the scenario, validate the sandbox, then compare it against the main order before applying it.
Example
You might move an accusation scene later and validate the scenario to see whether the new order creates missing setup warnings.
Writer Tip
Look for consequences, not just whether the new order feels exciting.
Common Mistakes
- Treating sandbox order as final too soon.
- Forgetting to compare before applying.
- Ignoring scenario warnings.
