Storage · Step
Add to a counter
Add to a named counter (or take away with a negative number), for the whole server or for each member. Warnings, wins, messages, anything you count.
counter.add
In a flow
“When a button is clicked, add to a counter.”
Message → Add to a counter wins → If Total is 10 → reward.
What it does
Add to a named counter (or take away with a negative number), for the whole server or for each member. Warnings, wins, messages, anything you count. It's a step: it runs when the white wire reaches it, then the flow carries on from its Then pin. It gives 3 values later steps can use. Find it under Storage in the palette.
When to use it
Use it to keep something between runs: add to a named counter (or take away with a negative number), for the whole server or for each member. Warnings, wins, messages, anything you count.
When not to
If nothing should change in Discord, a value node or a check is lighter.
