Number Variables Not Keeping Sum
Dec 13, 2019
Hey all -
I'm having trouble with number variables not being summed as the story progresses. I've attached the story. In a nutshell, I have three number variables that I would like to sum as the user progresses through the story based on their answer to the question (variables are New York, Hawaii, and Alaska). Based on the sum of the variables, when the user reaches slide 1.21 they will be directed to their choice (Envelope 1, 2, or 3). The variables are recording on each individual slide but the point total is not being carried to the next slide. Help?

Looks like an "order of execution" issue.
Your trigger is set to "Jump to...." prior to the "add X to..." trigger.
This results in you navigating away from the slide before the adjustments can take place so the triggers never fire.
Change the order and you should be good to go.
Hi Nathanal and welcome to E-Learning Heroes :)
It looks like Owen has reached out to help you here. I wanted to share our article on the topic for you or anyone following along.
Thanks, Owen that was it! Updated file for anyone that finds this.
Happy to have helped. Looks like a great example of using a "Decision Flow Chart" for course design. Nice job!
