Hi Catherine! Great question! Judy's idea of using visited states is a great idea. The only thing I'd add is that Storyline 360 only sends information about the objects states to your LMS when the learner advances to another slide, so you may want to add a SAVE button to ensure progress is saved. Allison LaMotte wrote this article on this very topic. It goes into more detail and even includes a free download! 🙂
I'm glad you added that info, Sarah. I didn't know that the states wouldn't be saved on the slide the user exits from. It's good to know there's a workaround for that. But it's too bad that requires adding a button and instructions to the interactive slide, as well as an extra slide in the course.
Does the user have to jump to another slide for SL to save the new value of a variable?

Hi Judy,
It sounds like Storyline saves the variable right away, but doesn't send it to the LMS until the user jumps to a new slide. There's more info on this over here: Learning More About Your LMS: Suspend Data and Resume Behavior.
Let me know if you have any other questions! :)
