I have a game with multiple levels and when a user doesn't get enough points it takes him back to the last page . Now if he had 7 out of 8 when it finished , then when he restarts the page it still says 7 /8....


I have tried to use these solutions...

On show - reset score_correct to 0 ( doesn work )

On Show reset-Publication

now i have tried many but i can seem to clear the score left in the score_correct variable..

any idea's

Al

Al,

i normally use custom variables and do resetting via a script but you might try either using the reset score action under 'scoring & reporting' actions or 'reset all variables' under programming tab / variables.

Hi Mack,

I tried using the Script suggestion in the script side bar but it did not work . I thought there would be a script like this resetVariable ( correct_score) where you could name the Variable you wanted to reset but i didn't see such a script . The thing is that i use others variables and cant use RESET ALL , but i will research the scroe suggestion under scoring and reporting...

Thanks

Al

myVariable = undefined

I think the fact that you are having problems with this, suggests you should be using custom variables..as Mack suggeted, since you can't seem to do it using the built in scoring and reporting.
Since you don't want to reset all variables. lets assume you create a variable 'MyP2Score' which saves the score for page2. You could also have another variable to store the cumulative score for all pages 'MyTotalScore'
So ...if they successfully do whatever on the current page, to go on to the next, Then you would at that point add the page score to the total score

MyTotalScore=MyTotalScore+ MyP2Score.

Otherwise, you would send them back to the start of page 2 are reset the page 2 score

MyP2Score=0

I never try to reset or change system variables in script.
