Need Help Writing a Trigger Statement

I have 5 variables. Each variable starts with a default but will return a result between 0 & 40. I have 5 corresponding layers and if any ONE variable is greater than any other it will show a specific layer. However, I also have a layer that I want to show when (and here is where I need help):

Show layer called "equal" if any variable is equal to any other variable unless ANY variable is greater than any other (even if there are 2 that are equal to each other).

For example, from this picture, I still want the 'N-High' layer to show and not the equal layer, even though 2 traits are equal.

*Note, the learner can click on the key colors to see any of the other traits.

Ultimately I want the layer to show that has the highest number. But I also want the Equal layer to be an option if the "highest number" are 2 equal traits AND they are higher than any other trait. Currently, if 2 traits are equal and they are both the highest, no layer will show.

    When learner clicks "Time to show Results"

    Set Highest to 0

    Set HighestScore to blank

    Set Equal to 0

    set HighestScore to "A"

    set Highest to A

    Set Equal to "C"

          if C = HighestScore

    Set Highest to "C"

         if C > HighestScore

    Set HighestScore to C

         if C > HighestScore

    Set Equal to "E"

          if E = HighestScore

    Set Highest to "E"

         if E > HighestScore

    Set HighestScore toE

         if E > HighestScore

    Set Equal to "N"

          if N = HighestScore

    Set Highest to "N"

         if N > HighestScore

    Set HighestScore to  N

         if N > HighestScore

    Set Equal to "O"

          if O = HighestScore

    Set Highest to "O"

         if O > HighestScore

    Set HighestScore to  O

         if O > HighestScore

    Here you are expected to show mutually exclusive explanations. For example a layer that closes other layers.  If you need the actual value of the high score, use HighestScore

    Show A explanation

         if Highest = "A"

     Show C explanation

         if Highest= "C"

    Show E explanation

         if Highest= "E"

    Show N explanation

         if Highest= "N"

    Show O explanation

         if Highest= "O"

    Show equal explanation

         if Equal = Highest

     

    This should work if you correct any typos.
