Hi all, I've trawled discussions but don't seem to be able to find what I need.
See attached story. It's on the "Shirley video" layer (where a user will watch a video and then score someone accordingly under 4 categories).
My issue is that the total keeps increasing if a user clicks an option and then changes their mind. I want the total score to only be the 4 category variables combined (without the ability to keep adding to the total score).
You can count the score not according to changes in these four variables but based on a new variable (let's call it 'Makingoptions') changes. Detecting variable changes by four triggers: Add value 1 to Makingoptions when (your four variables) changes
Recount the total score by five triggers: 1.Set CPOTCalculator to 0 when Makingoptions changes 2.Add(your four variables values) to CPOTCalculator when Makingoptions changes
Another solution (similar to Joanne's) is to reset your total each time a decision is made. You would need these triggers for each Variable change, but it is a pretty easy option. I have attached your Story with these edits.

Thanks Joanne, greatly appreciated!
This is magical Ron, thank you! Makes sense and works perfectly, I was looking at it from the wrong angle! Cheers :)
