In a flow
“When a player chats → Find mentioned players in Message → Ping a player.”
When a player chats → Find mentioned players in Message → Ping a player.
What it does
The players online whose names appear in a text, with or without an @, in the order they come. It's a value node: no white pins, it works out its answer when a step wired to it needs it. It gives 3 values later steps can use. Find it under Chat & text in the palette.
When to use it
Use it when the flow needs to: the players online whose names appear in a text, with or without an @, in the order they come.
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

-
The text to look in. Variables allowed.
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, it uses hey @Steve are you there.
