1 Correct answer
I don't see how the variable is incremented? You have first to increment the variable, which can be done with a first decision that is always executed, like:
IF 1 is equal to 1
Increment v_pushback by 1
Second decision will then check the variable:
IF v_pushback is equal to 2

Correct, it is not a default MCQ slide but one built with standard objects. This is just a quick mockup of how I want it to work. Thanks.
If you could share the full Advanced Action it might help.
The way I usually set up these scripts is like this:
This way the first click the v_question1=0 and then the else statement makes v_question1=1.
The second click would then run the "Jump to slide".
If this doesn't work, let me know and I might just want to see your file.

I'm going to restate this as I understand it, so my answer is based on the following:
1. This is a custom built question slide with multiple selections - only one is right
2. If the user selects the correct answer, the project will advance
OR
if user selects incorrectly twice, the project branches to a remediation slide.
Kyle's answer using the IF/ELSE approach should work - you only use one variable (and as many text feedback as you need - one for each incorrect if you like)
On entry, the variable is equal to zero.
Selecting the correct answer would trigger the feedback for the choice and allow the user to navigate forward - no need for a variable there.
Using the IF/ELSE trigger for every wrong answer - the first selection will check to see if the variable is equal to 1.
Since it will not be equal to one, the ELSE action will fire - incrementing the variable by 1 and revealing the feedback for selected incorrect choice.
This sets up the possibility of either selecting the correct choice (no impact on the variable) or selecting another incorrect choice.
The second incorrect choice should fire the THEN statement and jump to the selected slide, since the IF statement will be satisfied by the previous incorrect choice having incremented the variable to a value of 1.
Check to make sure the variable is incrementing by placing a text box for containing the variable on the slide ($$variable_name$$) and then previewing in the browser. it should show up as zero, then change to 1 when you make the first incorrect choice.
If it does this and still doesn't jump directly to the remediation loop when you select the next wrong answer, the only thing that could be in the way might be some type of pause you've got built into the slide that is stopping the action from firing.
Built it and it ran perfectly using the above logic:
