Transcript
Long stories need a good memory. Here’s how LoreWeaver keeps one, and how you can steer it.
Open Tools, then Memory. This is where the story keeps what’s happened.
Memories are saved as you play.
Every few replies, the key moments are kept for you. Pin the ones that must never slip. Pinned memories go into every single reply. You can add your own, too. Write the fact,
and name everyone involved, so it’s recalled at the right moment.
Remember now saves the latest replies straight away, without waiting for the next few.
The recap is the story so far, rewritten regularly as you play.
Rewrite rebuilds it from your memories... or edit it yourself, and save.
Switch it off to lock your version, so only you can change it.
To see what a reply remembered, open the chip under it, then Memory Bank.
Story passages are earlier scenes, word for word, recalled right beside your memories when they fit. Next up: rewinding, branching, and trying again.
