Main vs Scenario
Main vs Scenario compares the real order with the sandbox order so structural changes are visible.
Tags: scenarios, compare, structure
Overview
Main vs Scenario shows which scenes have moved between the current story order and the sandbox version.
When Should I Use This?
Use it when deciding whether the scenario's structure is actually clearer, stronger or more suspenseful.
How To Use It
Look at each moved scene and ask what changes in setup, payoff, character knowledge and pacing.
Example
Moving a confrontation earlier may increase pace but weaken the evidence trail that made it believable.
Writer Tip
Scene movement always changes context. Compare what the reader knows before and after each moved scene.
Common Mistakes
- Evaluating moved scenes in isolation.
- Forgetting that character knowledge may change with order.
- Applying a scenario without checking moved scenes.
