We're making a course that calls for multiple triggers on one slide.
In the first version of the course, there were fewer triggers and they all worked. However, now that new functions have been added and the triggers are twice as many, the older triggers won't work anymore.
The added triggers are entirely separate from the old ones so there are no conflicts in what they ask the program to do.
I can provide more details but my question would be if it's possible that the number of triggers on a slide could cause the error or not?
wanted to chime in on this w/ something that's helped us troubleshoot. We have a buttons in courses with over 100 triggers, (Phil's 1000 is crazy!!) as we add to it usually gets screwed up, to troubleshoot I copy and paste it with triggers then remove triggers to check functionality and locate problem. :]

I have built slides with over1000 triggers, I would say the answer is no, you have something else going on.
Hi Chelsea
could it be the order of the triggers is conflicting?
That's what I was thinking, too. Although I've the triggers work in one
scene and not work with another when they were ordered the same way.
Have you had a case where you had to reorder triggers for them to work?
Chelsea
Wow, that many! Thank you. Could the order of triggers be a factor for them
not to work?

Hello Chelsea!
Glad Wendy and Phil were able to assist. Changing the order of the triggers can definitely make a difference.
Good luck, hope this helps!
I am just now understanding that the order of the triggers is important.
Hi Helena! Glad that you found some benefit here and I hope it wasn't due to learning the hard way :)
