Please allow "watching" multiple variables in same trigger.
That's a great suggestion! It would be so helpful. And, as you point out, it could be set up like the "when the state of..." trigger.

- Create a T/F variable to "notice" other variables changing. The value of this variable doesn't matter. What matters is that it changes.
- Create triggers that toggle the "notice" variable using the same action that changes other variables, such as your "cardSeen" variables. For example, if you change page13card1seen to True when the timeline of a layer ends, add another trigger that toggles "notice" when the timeline of the layer ends.
- You could then have one trigger that runs when "notice" changes, with conditions that the "cardSeen" variables = True.
Note: Be sure you toggle the "notice" trigger, which makes it switch back and forth between True and False. That's needed for the "when 'notice' variable changes" trigger to run. (If the triggers all set the variable to True, the variable's value wouldn't change after the first trigger.)
Yes, this workaround does require extra triggers to toggle the "notice" variable, but those are simple triggers. I think that helps, because if you have to change the number of other variables (for example, add a page13_card5seen variable), there's only one trigger that needs its conditions edited.
