Values in variables not changing correctly
Hello!
I'm new to Storyline 360 and I want to make a 10-question quiz that displays which questions were wrong in the result slide. For that, I'm making a variable in each question that's supposed to change its value to 1 when "Question.Correct" is false, so that i can track each incorrect question and display them in the final slide (If the variable has a value of 1, a hidden text box displaying the wrong answer will change its state to "Normal", if not, it'll stay hidden).
My problem is the values for each question change to 1 independently if the question is answered correctly or not. I know I'm doing something wrong, but i can't figure out what, and I would be very thankful if someone could help me.
Thank you!
I'll attach the question triggers:
And the result slide triggers:
Using the Question.Correct variable in your scenario can be tricky. Jumping to the next slide without the presence of feedback layers and a trigger to submit the interaction can result in an incorrect change to the Question.Correct variable. Please find the attached .story file, which provides a solution to your problem. Just adjust the triggers on the result slide to show or hide text based on the values of the question's incorrect variables.
Question.Correct is not a great variable to use as it changes each time you switch slides and is therefore difficult to debug.
I would have changed the variable on the feedback layers, if you didn't want feedback I would have had invisible feedback layers that change the variable and then jump.
Thank you so much for your help. I tried it and it was indeed easier to track with the variables on the feedback layers.

Thank you for your help. It was indeed the solution to my problem. Thank you for taking the time to provide me with the file as well, I learned much from it.
Again, thank you so much.
