Changed your mind about a turn? There are a few ways back... and one that keeps both paths.
Undo takes back your last turn: your line, and the reply to it. No questions asked.
Regenerate rewrites the latest reply, and keeps the old one. Flip between them with the arrows.
Want to try a different path, without losing this one? Branch from any reply. Your story stays exactly as it is. The branch picks up from this message.
Now you’re in the branch: a new session that ends at that message.
So play it differently. The original never changes.
Your original is still in Sessions, with the branch tucked right under it.
The Branch map shows how they connect. Pick a session, then Continue.
Rewind to here is different. It goes back to that message, and deletes everything after it.
Not sure which to use? Branch first. You can always come back. That’s your safety net. Next up: longer, or steadier, replies.
