Story.ChoosePathString() runs the first stitch in the knot when when no matching stitch was found

Consider the following ink:

== Global = Foo I'm a good stitch, I am! ->DONE

I would expect calling Story.ChoosePathString("Global.non_existing_stitch") to result in an exception, but instead it runs the Globla.Foo stitch.

This is probably the logic that defensively guards against changes to the story content between save versions. When a path can’t be found then it tries to fall back to the next best path it can find. Whether there should be special behaviour in the case where you call it very specifically like this is more debatable. But I suspect it’s hard to distinguish.

Ah, I never even considered the idea that the story content might differ between save games. That sounds like a really hard problem to solve reliably. Glad some thought has been put into it though! 👍
