# Overview
|
|
|
|
Time fields tell PlotDirector when a scene happens. Use exact dates when chronology matters, relative time when the draft only needs "later that night" or "three weeks after the funeral", and confidence when the timing is still provisional.
|
|
|
|
Accurate time helps continuity checks find impossible sequences, age issues, travel gaps and story events that happen in the wrong order.
