Nesting Stitches #951
Description
Hi!
I've been using ink for a while now and have been loving it so far. I'm trying to organize the script for my game in a way that's useful (and can be used in combination with some C# logic for more powerful interactions). So far, I've the following architecture:
CharacterFile.ink -> Character Knot -> Date Stitches (one stitch per in-game day, since time passes and conversations change).
Thing is, I would like to add one further level of nesting to the "Date stitch" so I can reference it using the C# API. Just like I can do use .HasFunction("CharacterKnot.dateStitch") I would like to be able to do .ContentAtPath("CharacterKnot.dateStitch.timeOfDay"). Searching around google and docs hasn't shed much light into the matter (Google said at some point that I can have stitches inside stitches but I can't seem to find a way of doing so). I've tried using gathers but those aren't supported by the C# API.
Any suggestions? I know I could simply create multiple stitches to differentiate the times of day, like:
=== Character ===
= 2025_06_27_morning
= 2025_06_27_evening
= 2025_06_28_morning
= 2025_06_28_evening
Which would allow me to reference them in C# with .ContentAtPath("Character.2025_06_27_morning"), but my ideal scenario is something like
=== Character ===
= 2025_06_27
= morning
= evening
= 2025_06_28
= morning
= evening
so I could reference it as .ContentAtPath("Character.2026_06_27.morning"). Just wondering if there could be a "cleaner" way of doing this (that avoids having to come up with unique names for everything).
