Narrative designers! Anyone got any good tips for keeping my flowcharts from getting out of control? (Structuring branching non-linear story) I try set them up as simply as possible but they seem to inevitably end up getting convoluted.
If it’s a case of too many permutations, most can be boiled down to some common element. I try to identify what those are, then find a way to merge my branches back down to two, maybe three branches (if a complete merge is not possible).

An alarm starts to ring in my bead when my architecture gets too complex or cumbersome. I’ll look for emotional common denominators, such as whether an NPC is generally upset or content and coax the narrative to a point where I can use more universally-appropriate terms.

If I’ve understood your question, generally it’s just about writing in such a way that feels fitting for as many permutations as possible and branching out again for the odd line here and there to acknowledge specifics that can create the illusion of a permanent branch
