We will soon be adding the ability for the narrator to explicitly specify which characters are in a given scene. Would that help a bit?
Meanwhile, you can visually segment the action in a scene by using a horizontal rule (“
-” in our layout syntax). Note also that the system does not require that players make a move in every scene. So you can ask someone to “sit this one out” and the scene will be able to progress just fine. Hopefully these techniques can get you un-stuck for the time being?Regarding simultaneous scenes, we’ve received this suggestion from a couple of other users, too, and so we are thinking hard about how we could add it to Storium without making things difficult to use and understand. It’s high on our list so please stay tuned.
Thanks for the feedback!

It seems like the current interface could accomodate simultaneous scenes quite well, simply by not requiring that scenes be locked when a new one starts.
Maybe some visual indicator on the scene navigation bar for which scenes are active would help it out as well. And some way for the narrator to indicate which player characters are present in a scene.
