Set a counter

Put a named counter at an exact number.

Free plan counter.set

In a flow

“When a button is clicked, set a counter.”

Staff command → Set a counter to 0.

What it does

Put a named counter at an exact number. 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: put a named counter at an exact number.

When not to

If nothing should change in Discord, a value node or a check is lighter.

Counter Text

Its name, like warnings or wins.

What goes there: Type it in the side panel, or wire in text. e.g. Hello there
