    Hi BrandonErlinger the first thing I've spotted is that on the Option 3 button on Slide 2.3 Decision point, is that you are using variable "Path2Viewed" to determine if it is disabled. This should be "Path3Viewed" I believe.

    Also, just a friendly piece of advice. When providing your Storyline file, it's a good idea to strip it down to the slides that are the problem. Otherwise, it can be difficult looking at a project and trying to determine which slides the issue is referring to.

    After updating that variable reference to Path3Viewed, everything seems to be ok.

    When working with variables that are being used in a similar way. It can sometimes be useful to view the variables and how many times they are being used, as this can show a discrepancy. FYI: I'd removed the duplicate trigger on timeline start that was also setting the option buttons to disabled (it was only acting on option 1 and 3).

    Couldn't attach the SL file for some reason. Here's a dropbox link: Spex-Construction Docs v3.1.story
