does it work?

[mrjeffrivera]

I created a quick Twine story and published the file to my desktop. Before doing so, I ran it online and the twine game was fine. I converted it into an ePub with Spiner and it seemed to be fine and downloaded it also to my desktop. But when I tried to open the ePub, it could not open. I tried uploading it to KDP to use the viewer and it could not read it either because it said the file had no content. Please, help.

First of all, thanks for giving Spiner a whirl. I just tried the same by exporting "Kolb & the Dragon" through the newest Twine and it looks like the most recent version of Twine made some changes that Spiner doesn't like (yet). I've created issue #42 to track the progress on this bug, unfortunately I can not give an indication when it will be fixed at this time.

I've now updated Spiner to work with 2.2.1, the latest version of Twine (at the time of writing). I've tested it with Kolb & the Dragon as short branching story that I use to quickly test Spiners functionality. Any exported EPUBs are now be viewable on EPUB compatible devices and uploadable and viewable to KDP.

Could you please download and try v0.1.1 of Spiner to see if it works for you as well?

Yes, it works great. EXCEPT one thing. It puts all the choices on one line. So, instead of putting the choices one underneath the other, it's all one sentence.

Example: Click here or Here or Here

instead of:

Click here

or Here

or Here

Unfortunately you mail ended up in GMail's spambox. Thanks for reporting another issue, I've created an new issue #46 to track to progress of this problem.

In the meanwhile you can work around this issue by separating the links with an empty line. This way Spiner will render them as separate links (see Kolb & the Dragon.epub for an example). Though the separation between the links will be larger then they normally would.

To my experience the wider gaps between the links are actually pleasant when using an E Ink e-reader ;)

Since the original issue had been solved in #42 and released in 0.1.1 I'm closing this issue. Regarding the issue with the choices appearing on the same line I'm afraid that the problem is not easily solvable because this behaviour depends on the Twine story format (Harlowe shows choices on a new lines, Snowcube shows choices like Spiner does). So in order to be able to support both I've created issue #50 to track the progress on that.

Mike, I'm interested in using your Spiner again. Do you have an updated one for the latest Twine?
