XP will track the grades but not the attempts themselves. So it is currently not possible to impose a penalty for re-attempting a quiz. The student will always give awarded the best grade they achieve.
We tried to use XP in Moodle 4.1.3+ and we found that when we wanted to open a language package to edit and personalize languages, this plug-in was hindering this possibility. Do you know why and how to avoid this problem?
Thanks!

XP should be causing any troubles with the language customisations. Would you please describe the issue in more details? Would you have screenshots to share? You can email use directly at: support at levelup dot plus.
I've found that Level up XP awards points if I simply toggle a label completion on and off repeatedly. Could you make it so that once a label has been marked as complete it can no longer award more points? Or make it so it takes away the points if a student toggles completion off? That way students can't cheat and get bonus points for nothing... Thanks.
With XP+, you can award points that match exactly the score received for the SCORM activity, that is the default behaviour. To award different point values than the grade itself requires setting up the gradebook differently, that is more advanced but certainly possible.
Here is our documentation page on the grade-based rules:
https://docs.levelup.plus/xp/docs/how-to/grade-based-rewards
May I suggest if it is possible for LevelUP to provide a feature that gives students the option to disable it during a course? Or is this feature already available?
Such a feature would allow users to tailor their learning experience according to their preferences and needs, e.g., turn it off if "competition" feels too exhausting.
Thank You
