What it does

Draw a spring of particles winding upwards from a location, like a DNA strand or a spell. It's a step: it runs when the white wire reaches it, then the flow carries on from its Then pin. Find it under Effects in the palette.

When to use it

Use it when the flow needs to: draw a spring of particles winding upwards from a location, like a DNA strand or a spell.

When not to

If nothing should change in Discord, a value node or a check is lighter.
