[Closed] Checkbutton returns to default state

Hi,

I´m a total newcomer to maxscript and I´m starting to build some simple scripts to enhance my current custom bones rig.

For the tail I wanted to add a checkbutton to turn springs on and off and indicate their state.

What I did was this:

parameters globalsP rollout:globalsR
	(
		springs type:#float ui:springsSl
		springsOn type:#boolean ui:springsCh default:true animatable:true
		
	)

--function for springs
	
	Fn springsOn_fn = 
	(
		
		for i = $PtCtrl_TailFK* do
		(
			try(
				i.pos.controller[#spring].steps=2
			)catch()
		)
	)
	
	Fn springsOff_fn = 
	(
		
		for i = $PtCtrl_TailFK* do
		(
			try(
				i.pos.controller[#spring].steps=0
			)catch()
		)
	)

rollout globalsR "Global Controls"
	(
		slider springsSl "0%          Springs:       100%" range:[0,100,0] scale:.01 width:130 --across:2
		checkButton springsCh "" highLightColor:[0,255,0] width:15 height:15 offset:[70,-25] toolTip:"Turn Springs On or Off."
		
		on springsCh changed state do
			if springsCh.checked==false then
				springsOff_fn() 
			else 
				springsOn_fn() 
		
	)

Problem:

The checkbutton seems to do the job, but each time I exit the attribute holder and come back to it, it returns to its default state. So If its checked state is true, it will show up as checked, the next time I select he respective attribute holder, no matter if the springs are on or off.

Since I borrowed most of the code from one of Paul Neale´s Tutorials, I´m not sure what I´m doing wrong here…
