Is there any way to subtract points from a score in Storyline?

I'm working on creating a game in Storyline that would call for betting based on points already earned. Is there any way to subtract points from the score that will ultimately be posted to the LMS?

Thanks for all input!

  • Hi Dave -

    You can do it, but not with Storyline's built-in question slides. You'll need to work with variables to assign point values manually to each of your questions. 

    Here's a quick overview:

    and part two:

    David,

    Thanks, that's great! Now, will that be reported to the LMS as the learner's score?

  • As David says you cannot change the score, and his solution will not report to the LMS as a score, Steve Flowers did post a demo to do just this. I cannot find it, but I did test it and it worked a dream.

    Thanks, Phil

    I'll search for Steve Flowers' piece, but if you find it first, I'd love to see it.

    Okay, I can't find the post you referred to, Phil. How DO I send a custom score to the LMS?
