Problems with a quiz!
I have downloaded a quiz/game that I’m having some trouble with.
There is a help function, but unfortunately, I can’t get it to work. I want to change the number of levels from 5 to 2—I believe I’ve sorted that out—but I also want to adjust the time allowed to complete the task, and I haven’t been able to figure that part out.
So, is there a clever person out there who can solve this for me, or explain exactly how I should go about it?
It looks like you broke a few things when goign from 5 to 2 levels. The version I've attached should work for you.
To change the time I added a new variable to look after it. Open the Variables panel and change the default value of TimeLimit (in seconds, up to 599).

Hey Dshaw :)
Thanks for your very quick response—that’s very kind of you.
I’ve just tested it, and it looks great, but could you also help me get to the final step? It seems like button "2" isn't becoming active, which prevents me from moving forward.
Can you figure out where the error lies? :)Give this a try. There are 2 copies of button 2. I pointed to the wrong one…
OMG! You’re awesome! Thanks so much for the quick response. I really appreciate it. It’s working now, and I can move forward—thanks! Have a great evening.
Never ending story....... 😄
Almost everything is working, but now the time isn´t working!
It is starting fine, when the rules is going on, the time is going, but when I start the question, the time stops, but if I answer right, I will get added 5 sek.
But, the time is still...
Any solution to that?Give this a try:
For info, if you wanted to do it yourself here’s the steps -
View > Slide Master, select the master your questions use, open the Time Loop layer and drag the end of its timeline back to 1 second (or set it in the timeline).
It Works!
What have I done wrong? just so I can learn a litle bit!? 😃Oh....Sorry!Just read your answer! Thx again!
Now the clock is fixed I’ve noticed an issue when the time runs out on a question nothing triggers the clock just counts negative. This version should work:
Hi again...
Hopefully the last question... The part you corrected is part of a larger project. When I test your fix—before importing the "quiz" scene—everything works fine; however, once I import the "quiz" scene, it no longer tracks the question count.
I haven't done anything other than import the corrected Storyline file and link them together. Can you see what is going wrong?Your main project already contained an older copy of the quiz's slide master and Question layout, and when you imported the scene, Storyline attached the questions to that older layout instead of the fixed one.
Hopefully the last question in this game.... :)
When this quiz ends, it always displays the message: "Unfortunately, you didn't have enough points; please try again."
I am 100% certain that I answered all the questions correctly, so the error must lie elsewhere. Could it be because my results slide shows "Results5.passed"? I only have 2 levels, so surely it shouldn't say "5"? Please see the attached images. Thanks.
