The Results2.ScorePoints is always coming up as 0, but the Results2.ScorePercent is displaying correctly.
I have two Results2.ScorePoints variables appearing in my varible list and I think this may be messing up the information displayed on the results slide. Any suggestions on a fix?
Zoe if you do add a new results slide do not delete the old one, there is a bug that seems to break results slides and deleting a results slide when you have issues can break it further.
I normally just create a new scene that cannot be accessed and drop the results slide there.
What Phil said. The four "Result." variables generated when a Results Slide is added are system variables and cannot be deleted or used to calculate against other variables.
Some of the issues I've seen people attempt is renaming the system variables in an attempt to combine the values with other calculations. While you 'can' edit the name of those system variables, as soon as you do it breaks.
Even if you delete a Results Slide, the system variables remain as Phil mentioned. His suggestion is a great workaround if you mistakenly added a Results Slide you don't need - move it to a 'dummy' Scene.
The only other option (which is not feasible most of the time) is to start over and map out your structure in Story View first.

Hi Zoe!
Those are generated when you add a results slide. Does the score work correctly when you add a new result slide for tracking?
I was hoping to come up with another solution as its a pretty cumbersome course, but I guess that may be my only option.
I'll give it a go on Monday.

The solution I went with was to create a new results slide - it seems to be working.
Thank you all for your help!
Thanks for popping back in with an update Zoe! Glad you were able to get it working for you again.
