Summary

Tasks

Fiction

• make a real timeline with character names and dates now that they're growing.

Artifacts

• some stone art of the language moving from the stone to the plant
• woodcut of evil teenagers joining a lichen cult **forgot about this
• naturalist documents
• oracle devices
• fake religious text
• replacement glyphs

Narrative Mechanics:

• ??? more bleed more metalepsis more more more.
• Force players to cross reference a real item to advance.

Bug Fixes and Technical Features

• Password special character error as you type
• no valid id "profvided"
• straight up just close the app when it exists? I don't love that for log in purposes though. Popup?
• Add entry lights up before actually reading Ficus Elastica - check logs page for wrong check
• unknown user on QA3952? (dont know why this broke, seemed fine in playtest. people referred to character by name.)
• Fix back button to actually be back button record page changes in telemetrics (like click bookmark and stuff)
• allow bookmark locked entries
• set max image size for entry main images
• Fix web view for holiday writing
  • "New entry" bool for web entry - so it exports without an ID number to prevent overwriting in the mother database.
• make other database! electron builder? Kept spreadsheet for now. People like it but the terminal will prevent brute-forcing more.
• Change look of text boxes when they've been edited since last save
• -register page
  • (Variable for entities to reference info?) I don't think I want it in the story it should happen later, but should prep for it when making registration page
  • Since I'm collecting usernames on consent form, this can also be part of the "registration" process.
• Players need to find the "correct" image in the data?
  • Looseleaf files on desktop or whatever.
  • USB drive
• NEED a way for players to track unlock entries/links, even if it's just a symbol on entry and not a list.
• Link subentries.
  • Link by fauxID instead of ID. Maybe select from a searchable list? This sounds complicated but just an extension of the search functionality I already have - I can just component it into the entry page or make it an admin-only side-bar.
• Autoupdates:
  • minimum hex from parent
  • creation and last modified from parent
  • last modified from creation
  • researcher and last edit by from parent
• Make a css for artifacts that are not available in this vignette, so that it's physical object can still be included but details about its story do not distract playtesters.
• Have archive7 export hexhash list with - No type columns, randomly insert fake hexes
• Clean telemetrics data for easier reading. Maybe even export as CSV? But I want to import it later and show a playthrough so maybe JSON is better.
• Currently json doesn't actually update modEdit tag, it's only printing it in logs. Change this for the player identity is saved spiritually into the document.

Installation and Playtesting Workflow

• Make an install workflow checklist
• Fix consent for to not have confusing 3rd box.
• Register for slots in advance!!!
• Leave room after first playtest to check telemetrics aren't broken.
• Update playtest form way in advance.
• Re-read consent form and playtesting script right before exhibitions
• More vertical space - get a shelf even if you can't fill it.

Scrap writing

There is an erosion here, right at the base of every entry. This is a space built for details and there just aren't any. Where did this come from? Who found it? None of these entries say anything about what they are. Every thing is just wondering what they mean.
