Is there a trick to getting variable scoring to include a negative

Jan 11, 2024

G'day

I have a fun course with 3 levels, as they progress the questions get harder and I want the penalty for incorrect answers to also increase. However for this to work the scoring needs to go into a negative. 

I can't seem to figure it out. I've tried subtracting, and using a negative. With no luck? Anyone any success with this? Give me a holler if you have. Cheers

Hi Janet!

Thanks so much for reaching out. Happy to help!

Quick question for you. Are you currently using Storyline Built-in Quiz Questions? 

I took a look at this on my end, and I'm able to change the input for point values to negative points in the Form View tab:

 

Attached you'll find my sample .story file where I included two questions and a results slide so you can test this functionality on your end. If this isn't what you were looking to achieve, feel free to share your file with us, and we can take a closer look! 

Have a wonderful start to 2024! 🎉
