Mark a square
Put the member's mark in a square, numbered 1 to rows × columns left to right, like Tic-tac-toe. Refuses a taken square, or a member whose turn it isn't.

In a flow
“When a button is clicked, mark a square.”
Square 5 button → Mark a square 5 → If Placed → Check for a line.
What it does
Put the member's mark in a square, numbered 1 to rows × columns left to right, like Tic-tac-toe. Refuses a taken square, or a member whose turn it isn't. It's a step: it runs when the white wire reaches it, then the flow carries on from its Then pin. It gives 5 values later steps can use. Find it under Games & fun in the palette.
When to use it
Use it for games and fun: put the member's mark in a square, numbered 1 to rows × columns left to right, like Tic-tac-toe. Refuses a taken square, or a member whose turn it isn't.
When not to
If nothing should change in Discord, a value node or a check is lighter.
