Read a counter
A named counter's value (0 when nothing was counted yet).
counter.get
In a flow
“When a button is clicked, read a counter.”
/wins → Read a counter → Reply: {node.c.total} wins.
What it does
A named counter's value (0 when nothing was counted yet). It's a step: it runs when the white wire reaches it, then the flow carries on from its Then pin. It gives 2 values later steps can use. Find it under Storage in the palette.
When to use it
Use it to keep something between runs: A named counter's value (0 when nothing was counted yet).
When not to
If nothing should change in Discord, a value node or a check is lighter.
