You could use screensharing where one person has access to the other computer to work on the file that resides on the other computer, that's the only solution I can think of if the computers are not networked together.
So, for clarification, is it possible for two developers to simultaneously work on the same .story file from a networked configuration or can they only work on it at different times?
You would have to save the file to your local computer before opening and editing. If you needed to work on the file at the same time, you could try the screen sharing option as noted above.
Most likely not, depending on what screensharing program you would use. It would not really be recommended to have the same file opened on two different computers at the same time, as they would each need to be saved to the local drive. Saving to a shared network drive can cause erratic behavior.

Hello Heather, and welcome to the community!
Here is our recommended Workflow for working on a file with separate computers.
Hope this helps!

Hi Michael,

The issue with screen sharing, is that you really can't have two people working on different slides at the same time. Right?

Ok. Thanks.
+1 for adding this feature please, especially considering the nature of work now
