What it does
What a value looks like: a number, a mention, a link... Wire it into a Switch. It's a value node: no white pins, it works out its answer when a step wired to it needs it. It gives 1 value later steps can use. Find it under Logic in the palette.
When to use it
Use it to decide what happens next: what a value looks like: a number, a mention, a link... Wire it into a Switch.
When not to
For a value that never changes, type it into the setting instead of wiring a node.
Typical wiring
Sockets: settings you can wire
- Value Text
-
What to look at, like {answer.amount} or a wired value.
What goes there: Type it in the side panel, or wire in text. e.g. Hello there
If it's empty: Optional. Left empty and unwired, the step runs without it.
