Storyline "review mode" breaking courses
You don't need a bunch of triggers and variables to prevent the user from clicking the Next button until the timeline ends. That can be done just by using restricted navigation. (You will still need variables to control the Next button on interactive slides.)

Hi Judy,
The solutions you have there are essentially what we've already been doing.
The issue is that, with those triggers, a learner can get stuck forever on any question slide if they answer a question (and thus the Submit trigger fires) but then exit the course before proceeding to the next screen. When you relaunch the course, the next button will be set to inactive, because your "buttons_clicked" variable will still be set to false, because the state of that variable was never saved, because the learner did not move on to a new screen. However, the Submit button will also be gone, and the results layer not showing, because it's stuck in its "review" state.
