Variables not working when typed in?
Apr 21, 2017
Hey there,
I am designing a little simulator of Python programming, and using text fields checked against variables to simulate coding.
I have had some success so far, but I have run into a problem. I have the variable preset to the correct answer, and when I click execute, it works. When I type it in myself, I get no response. I've checked and rechecked to see if I was mistyping, but I wont rule that out, but I honestly think I am doing this correctly.
Any thoughts? It's attached.

When I enter with ALT-0147 and 0148 from the keypad, it works.
Hey Walt,
That looks like it will do it. I think as long as I adjust the correct values to feature the prime marks, rather than curved quotation marks, I should be in the clear. Hopefully once I do that, there won't be any odd parsing by browser when it's hosted to send primes back to quotes.
Thanks for the assist!
I had a similar issue and found the player menu settings was to 'restricted' instead of 'free'. This was preventing my variables working on a slide!
