I am working on a project for an interactive music-project where one should be able to choose between one, two or three options at the end of each song. I already did a sidescroller with music and sounds from scratch using the minim library (and my brain to figure it out) - so I thought I could do it.
I'm on the early planing stage but I'm kinda stuck:
I made a Tabulator-seperated file in which each track is listed (with filepath etc). Also there is a list of the songs that should come after this song. So there the outcome should be an irregular net-like strukture with knots. I figured out how to descripe it to fit in a file. Also I think it will not be so hard to let those tracks play in the desired order.
My Problem: I fail at displaying this structure. All I want to do is to display a structure with knots and branches where lenght equals tracklength.
There are three cases:

There are three cases:
- One knot leads to one or many knots (easy - but how should the angles beto not destroy the possibility of the child branches to return to their desired knot?)
- Two knots leading to the same knot (could be solved with trigonometry I guess)
- Many knots leading to the same point (???)
It seems like an problem where one can not just solve things in a serial matter but the whole thing must be solved parallel? Is it even geometrical possible to display this thing? I'm stuck in my thinking and I have no idea what therms I should use in a websearch.
To make it more understandable heare a link to a brach structure I like to have as an outcome. The knots are on the same x-axis to describe the branching levels.
If someone knows a way to tackle this issue or if someone could give me a little hint I would be very pleased ; )
But I think its very likely that someone has thought about this thing before.
