Projects

What you see

1. Project listEach project with its medium, number of sources, canon facts, members and last activity. Open now marks the one you are in; a badge counts candidates to review.
2. New projectA name, a Start with choice (an empty project or one of the samples) and, for an empty project, its Medium. Owners and admins only.
3. Project pageClick a project name. At the top: counts, and Open project (or Go to home if it is open now).
4. GeneralProject name, Medium (decides the fields on entity pages) and Art style (added to every generated image).
5. Research profileField, Period, Place, Legal system or procedure and Notes for research, sent with every Research question in the project.
6. Conflict severity by ruleFor each conflict rule, whether new scans mark it Hard or Soft.
7. Entity types and Danger zoneThe project’s Entity types, and Danger zone, which replaces the project’s content with a sample.

Create a project

1. Click New project.
2. Type a Story or project name.
3. In Start with, keep An empty project or pick a sample: Broken Tide, Lantern Row, The Ashbell Pass, Sherlock Holmes, the Oz books or Alice.
4. For an empty project, pick its Medium: novel or prose, film or series, or game. A sample sets its own.
5. Click Create and open; the new project opens on Home.

Set the medium and art style

1. Click the project in the list.
2. Under General, pick a Medium: game, novel or prose, or film or series.
3. Type an Art style; it saves when you stop typing.

Edit entity types

1. Open the project, then its page; a project that isn’t open shows Open and edit types.
2. Click Add type, or the edit button on a type, and set Name, Plural, Colour and Icon.
3. To remove a type that pages use, pick the type they become in Move pages to and confirm.

Replace a project with a sample

1. On the project page, find Danger zone.
2. Click Replace with this next to the sample you want.
3. Confirm; sources, canon, conflicts and changes are replaced, the audit trail keeps its history and other projects are not touched.

What these settings do and don’t touch

• Changing the medium keeps every value already filled in on entity pages; it only changes which fields show.
• Before any entity page exists, a medium change also swaps the default entity types.
• Entity types are notes for your team: canon, conflicts and impact never use them. Renaming a type keeps every page’s type.
• Severity defaults apply to new scans. Existing conflicts keep theirs.
• Each project is separate: nothing is shared between projects.
