Addition variable

:bullseye: What is your goal?

Create a score (0-80) based on previous variables outputs.

:thinking: What is the problem & what have you tried?

The variable returns 80 everytime regardless of the outputs of the previous variables. Ive attempted my own research and trail and error to no avail.

Hello,

Your function contains a syntax error. You’re using the = sign as plain text, but in Make it must be encoded as {{=}} (the green token).

Otherwise, the expression is treated as a string and the function will never execute as you expect. Please take a look on attached screenshot below.

Dont forget the quotation marks too - do they need to be there? Are they actually present in the text strings being checked too?

Additional variables in Make can be confusing at first, especially when scenarios get complex. I’ve found they’re most useful for temporarily storing values between modules or keeping calculations clean. Naming them clearly helps a lot, otherwise it’s easy to lose track of what’s being passed around. Once you start using them intentionally, scenarios become easier to debug and extend.
