Quiz with score system

[virus.dll]

I'm trying to make a simple quiz in cs6 with actionscript 2.0. Basically there are 8 questions and each question has 3 possible answers. For each answer I want to assign a different score. Depending on the total score, a different text is displayed at the end of the quiz. What is the best/easiest way to code this? Graphically-wise, the quiz is as good as finished (as it's pretty basic) and I already have programmed the actions of clicking the 3 possible answer buttons and the start button etc. I only don't know how to make this score system. I found someone who already asked my question here but he didn't really get much of an answer nor did I understand his code. Can somebody please help me out? I'd really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

I added this to one of the buttons in the beginning:

on (release) {
_global.score=0;
_global.score=_global.score+x;
}

At the last couple questions I added this script (it's supposed to view a template with the result of the quiz based on the total score):

on (release) {
if (score<=x) {
    gotoandstop(y);
} else if (score=x or x or x or x) {
    gotoandstop(y);
} else if (score>=x) {
    gotoandstop(y);  
} else {
    gotoandplay(y);
}

I replaced the actual numbers with x and y because you obviously can't know how I organized the templates. But somehow in the last script the total score calculation doesn't give the correct result...

Can someone PLEASE help me, it's urgent.

Hi,

Firstly you might want to put this on the timeline by itself, im not sure.

_global.score = 0;

then on the two of your buttons have these codes

on (release) {
    if (score <= x || score >= x)
    {
        gotoAndStop(y);
    }
    else if (score == x || score == x || score == x || score == x)
    {
        gotoAndStop(y);
    }
    else
    {
        gotoAndPlay(y);
    }
} 

on (release) {
    _global.score = _global.score + x;
} 

gotoandplay should be gotoAndPlay, gotoandstop should gotoAndStop, capitals, most important for it to work.

good luck


code explained

on (release) {
    // if score less than, equal to, or higher than **
    if (score <= x || score >= x)
    {
        gotoAndStop(y);
    }
    // if score is equal to ** or score is equal to ** or ** or **
    else if (score == x || score == x || score == x || score == x)
    {
        gotoAndStop(y);
    }
    // if score not similar to any of the above
    else
    {
        gotoAndPlay(y);
    }
}
