What is false with this code ?
goal 1 & 2 are visible
but only goal 1 should be visible at startup.

player = GetLocalPlayerThing();
SetInv(player, 99, 1000);

// Goal: 0
if((!done0) && (GetSenderRef() == sectorGoal0))
{
jkPrintUNIString(player, 350);
PlaySoundThing(soundGoal0, player, 1.0, -1, -1, 0);
SetGoalFlags(player, 0, 2);
SetGoalFlags(player, 1, 1);
done0 = 1;
Return;
}
// Goal: 2
if((!done2) && (GetSenderRef() == surfaceGoal2))
{
jkPrintUNIString(player, 350);
PlaySoundThing(soundGoal2, player, 1.0, -1, -1, 0);
SetGoalFlags(player, 2, 2);
done2 = 1;
Sleep(3);
jkEndLevel(1);
Return;
}

Return;

touched:
// Goal: 1
if((!done1) && (GetSenderRef() == thingGoal1))
{
jkPrintUNIString(player, 350);
PlaySoundThing(soundGoal1, player, 1.0, -1, -1, 0);
SetGoalFlags(player, 1, 2);
SetGoalFlags(player, 2, 1);
done1 = 1;
Return;
}

Return;

end

The cog looks like it should work ok. One thing I would try is to remove these two lines in the startup section:
// SetGoalFlags(player, 1, 1); // Not visible at startup
// SetGoalFlags(player, 2, 1); // Not visible at startup
I have a feeling that if you start a line in the code with "//" it doesn't always ignore it. I would remove those lines, but if you want to keep those lines for your own reference then use "#" at the start of the line instead.

One simplification is to use "sound soundGoal=accomplish1.wav local" in the symbols section and simply use "soundGoal" for all three goals - since it's the same sound.

Yes, it does always ignore it. That's the whole point..
