Twine 2.1.3

Twine 2.1.2

Release Date: April 29, 2017

If you are upgrading and using a non-English localization, this will cause your stories to be saved to a slightly different folder than before. Instead of Twine -> Stories, they will now be saved to Twine -> [the word "Stories" as translated to your language]. You will probably need to move your existing stories into this new folder.

Features

  • Increased the display density of passages at the medium zoom level.
  • The story list can now be sorted in reverse chronological and alphabetical order (thanks Thomas Michael Edwards).
  • Mac users can now create passages in the story editor with force touch (thanks Michael Savich).
  • You can now widen the passage, JavaScript, and stylesheet editor windows.
  • Revised syntax colors in the JavaScript and stylesheet editors to be more readable.
  • Includes SugarCube 2.16.0.
  • Includes Harlowe 1.2.4 and 2.0.1.

Bugfixes

  • When a new story format is added, stories that used an older version are automatically brought up-to-date. This bug would manifest as having no format initially selected in the Story Format dialog.
  • You cannot remove the default story format anymore. (Choose another one as default first.)
  • Issues with non-English localizations where stories would not save correctly, or would not save to the correct folder, have been fixed.
  • External links now do not cause a broken-link arrow to be drawn in the story editor.
  • Special characters (that have meaning in regular expressions) now are handled correctly when searching and replacing.
  • Fixed a bug where publishing a story from the story list wouldn't work.
  • Fixed a bug where clicking the modal dialog background would not save passage title changes.
  • Fixed a bug where clicking the modal dialog background would be treated as a confirmation in deletion modal dialogs.
  • It's now not possible to scroll the main window when a modal dialog is open.

Twine 2.1.0

Release Date: January 31, 2017

Upgrade Notes

This is a significant update from the 2.0 series. If you're upgrading, please read the notes below before beginning.

If you are upgrading, then making a backup copy of your stories folder is recommended. To do this, launch Twine 2.0 and choose Show Library from the Twine menu. Quit Twine, then make a copy of the folder that was revealed. (If you are using Linux and Show Library doesn't work, your stories folder is located in ~/Documents/Twine.

If you had added custom story formats previously, you'll need to re-add them after updating to this version. The process works exactly the same as before. Sorry for the inconvenience -- you will only need to do this once.

If you do not see any stories after upgrading, double-check your Twine directory by choosing Show Library from the Twine menu. Go up one level from here. You may see two directories: one called "Stories," and another named Stories in another language (hopefully your preferred, non-English one). Move the story files from Stories to the folder with the localized name and they should be back once you re-launch Twine.

If you would like to continue using 2.0.11 online, it is still available at https://twinery.org/2.0.11.

Features added

  • Streamlined look and feel.
  • The starting passage now shows a green rocket icon in the passage instead of being slightly bolder.
  • Passages with broken links now show an arrow ending in an X instead of an icon in the passage.
  • Added dark theme for late-night hypertexting.
  • Loading large stories is considerably faster.
  • It's now possible to have multiple versions of story formats installed.
  • Harlowe 2.0.0 is now available.
  • SugarCube 2.1.12 is now available.
  • You can now use the Chromium web debugger on stories you test inside Twine by right-clicking the window and choosing Inspect from the contextual menu.
  • You can now directly drag a story file onto the story list to import it.
  • The story format version is now recorded in a published story file.
  • You can now drag the story map by holding down the middle button of the mouse instead of the space bar.
  • You can zoom into the story map with the mouse wheel.
  • When dragging passages when snap-to-grid is turned on, the passages will reflect this.
  • If you import a story with the same name as an existing one, then Twine will prompt you if you'd like to replace it.
  • Danish, Italian, and Portuguese localizations have been added.
