State and Variable Trigger not working
I am working on a practice file and I've set up some variables and state triggers that just won't work.
I've set Level one to be in normal state, while level 2 and 3 are disabled. I set a trigger to allow level 2 to change to normal when level 1 is complete. But that isn't working. Even when the reference shows the value is true. Not sure where I'm going wrong, can someone help?
I believe the problem is when your trigger is activated. You had the trigger to change level 2 to normal when the user clicks on it. Instead, I changed the trigger to Set state of Level 2 to Normal when the timeline starts on this slide if Level1Complete=value True. Please try this.

I may be able to see better by looking at your project, but based on your screenshots, you might have an issue with your trigger order. Storyline fires the triggers in your list from top to bottom. It looks like you have a trigger to go to another slide BEFORE the state of Level 2 is set to Normal. This may be causing your project to go to another slide and NEVER change the state of Level 2. I would suggest to try moving your Jump to slide trigger BELOW the trigger for changing the state of Level 2.
Here is the file, I tried changing the jump trigger below but that didn't work either.

That worked! Thank you so much!
