Unlocking objectives

You can use action lines to unlock new objectives during a scene. This is useful for guiding players through multi-step investigations or introducing new goals based on their actions.


To unlock an objective, use this format:


objective + objective_name


Example:


objective + find_missing_wallet

Objective names must match entries defined in the Objectives spreadsheet. They are not created in the script itself.


Objectives are global, meaning they are immediately applied to all players once triggered.


This ensures that every player in the session sees the updated objective at the same time.
