# Add facilitator notes to a multiplayer inject

## Everything you need to know about writing facilitator notes on multiplayer injects and using them in Presenter mode, as a builder or facilitator.

Facilitator notes let you write reminders against each inject in a multiplayer microsimulation. When you present, you see them on your own screen. Participants never do.

### Add facilitator notes to an inject

*Adding facilitator notes to an inject on the Simulation timeline*

1. Open the multiplayer microsimulation in the builder.
2. On the **Create** tab, select the **Simulation timeline** step.
3. Find the inject you want. Below the inject card is a panel headed **FACILITATOR NOTES · Never shown to participants**.
4. Select **Edit** in that panel and type your reminders. Notes are optional and plain text. Put each point on its own line.

The counter at the top right of the timeline, **Facilitator notes · N of M**, shows how many injects have notes (N) out of the total (M).

You can't format notes.

There's no character limit.

### Who can add or see notes

- **Contributors** can add and edit notes in the builder.
- **Reviewers** can read them but not edit.
- **Facilitators** see them in Presenter mode and can edit them there during a session.
- **Participants** never see them.

Notes don't appear in any report or export, including the Report Builder, CSV, Word and PDF.

### Use notes in Presenter mode

*Presenter mode on a scenario update: the facilitator notes panel sits under the step heading, above the participant preview.*

When you reveal an inject in Presenter mode, its notes appear in their own panel on your private screen. You also see a preview of the next inject's notes, styled differently, so you can read ahead. An inject with no notes shows a short message saying so.

You can edit notes during the session in Presenter mode. Your edits are saved to that deployment only, so co-facilitators on the same deployment see them too. The microsimulation in the builder doesn't change.

### Where your notes go

Notes stay with the microsimulation from Draft through Ready to deploy.

- Each deployment takes its own copy of the notes when it's deployed. Editing the notes in a deployment doesn't change the builder or any other deployment.
- If you edit the notes in the builder after deploying, existing deployments keep their copy.
- Duplicating a microsimulation, or using one as a template, copies its notes.
