What it does
Put an item into a list at a place (1 is the front), without losing the others. It's a value node: no white pins, it works out its answer when a step wired to it needs it. It gives 2 values later steps can use. Find it under Values in the palette.
When to use it
Use it when a step needs a value worked out first: put an item into a list at a place (1 is the front), without losing the others.
When not to
For a value that never changes, type it into the setting instead of wiring a node.
