Set slowmode
Make members wait between messages, or turn it off.
channel.set_slowmode
In a flow
“When a button is clicked, set slowmode.”
30 seconds of slowmode during the event.
What it does
Make members wait between messages, or turn it off. It's a step: it runs when the white wire reaches it, then the flow carries on from its Then pin. Find it under Channels in the palette.
When to use it
Use it when the flow works with channels: make members wait between messages, or turn it off.
When not to
If nothing should change in Discord, a value node or a check is lighter.
