DirectRT quitting if response is outside set time threshold (case 10793)

[adammagerman]

Hello,

DirectRT quits my task whenever someone response past the time threshold that we set. We set our time limit to 500ms, and if someone responds past that period, the task stops. Has anyone else had experience with this, or is there an easy answer as to why this might happen?

Thanks!

Hi Adam,

I'd like to see if I can recreate this error on my copy of DirectRT. Could you please upload your input file and styles file to your reply to this post? Thanks!

Here you go! Thanks for the Help!

I noticed that whenever you use the jumping feature, you have a negative sign (-) in front of the trial number. You only need to the negative in front of the number if you have other stimuli in the same trial that come after the jump command. Try removing all of the negative signs in any jump commands of your input file and see if that may fix the issue.
