In a flow

When a player uses a command → Get saved boss id → Entity from its id → Make an entity glow.
What it does
Look an entity up by its unique id, to get it back after you saved the id. Found says if it is still in the world. 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 Entities & mobs in the palette.
When to use it
Use it when the flow needs to: look an entity up by its unique id, to get it back after you saved the id. Found says if it is still in the world.
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
- Id Text
-
The unique id of the entity, like one saved earlier.
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 00000000-0000-4000-8000-000000000001.
