Link to scene

May 01, 2015

"Link to scene" is handy, but if a scene ends with a question, it seems to be unavailable.

Worse, it is necessary to edit the trigger of both the correct and incorrect feedback to define where the NEXT action should connect.

Hi Sam, 

By default, quiz slides do not have a next button so linking is done via the correct and incorrect layers as you mentioned and has to be done one the slide when linking out of a scene not in story view. If you do not have feedback enabled then you need to add a trigger after the submit interaction trigger in regards to where you'd like the slide to link to. 

Let us know if you need anything else.

Sam, thanks for clarifying.  I guess I have two issues:

1.  When I have a question that has 2 attempts allowed and in the Try Again layer I link to a content slide for the learner to review...is there a way to automatically bring the learner back to the question for their second attempt? 

2.  When a learner has come to the results slide after a series of questions and has not passed, is there a way that the learner only has to revisit the questions they missed?

A lightbox will only show a single slide.

I don't like the variable solution because getting a course to run right is difficult enough already.

Let's say there are 10 questions. Let's assume these questions are back-to-back and not spread throughout the course.  Create 10 True/False variables: Q1, Q2, ... Q10 set to false by default.

In the "correct answer layer" of each question, setup a trigger to set QN to True, in the "incorrect answer layer" set QN to False.

In the base layer of the question, create a trigger that skips to the NEXT slide if QN is true.

I've no experience with this proposed solution.  Base layer behaviors in SL content slides are not always the same in Quiz slides.  You would need to test with a quick 3 question .story file.
