Is there the equivalent of "display" macro in trialogue/paloma? about trialogue HOT 4 CLOSED

I don't have access to my computer atm, but from the top of my head I don't think this functionality is available.

I'm also not sure about the desired effect this would enable. I understand the regular use case in Harlowe or Sugarcube, but in a chat interface such as Trialogue, how would one passage appear inside another? What would trigger this?

@phivk perhaps I'm missing a simple solution, but here's my problem. I have passage A which branches out in to B and C. However, I want both B and C to come back to D. With link text, the reader would have to click a link from B/C in order to arrive at D. What I want though is for D to be directly appended to B and C, thus why I thought of the display macro.

Ah! I misunderstood that you want to display one passage's content inside another passage.

If you want to trigger one passage from another passage without requiring user input you can use:

story.showDelayed(idOrName);

This is documented here: https://github.com/phivk/trialogue/blob/master/README.md#%EF%B8%8F-changes-from-paloma

Does that help?

@phivk, yes that helps, thanks. I've also found that there is <%= story.render("passage name") %> that simply displays another passage.
