Hello,

I have an experiment in which participants see a stream of images and must report whether some target image within that stream is facing left or facing right. So far, the presentation of the trials is going perfect - everything shows up at the right time and in the right order but when I run the script in monkey mode, none of the responses are recorded. (I tested this on other scripts and responses are being recorded for them so it's not a program-wide problem). I cannot figure out what's different/incorrect about my script! Any suggestions?

Things that are correct in the data file:
-date, time, subject, blockcode, trialcode
-values that do not rely on participant response (e.g., what position the target is within the image stream)

Things that are incorrect in the data file:
-response -> all zeros
-correct -> all zeros
-latency -> all zeros except my rest trial which gives the rest duration
-values that do rely on participant response (e.g., the count of how many trials have been correct so far for a particular trial type) -> all zeros


Here is an abridged version of my script:
