Spawn a text display
Spawns a text display where you say, with its own settings ready to fill in: alignment, default background, line width, see through, shadowed, text opacity. Empty settings keep the usual values.

What it does
Spawns a text display where you say, with its own settings ready to fill in: alignment, default background, line width, see through, shadowed, text opacity. Empty settings keep the usual values. It's a step: it runs when the white wire reaches it, then the flow carries on from its Then pin. It gives 1 value later steps can use. Find it under Entities & mobs in the palette.
When to use it
Use it when the flow needs to: spawns a text display where you say, with its own settings ready to fill in: alignment, default background, line width, see through, shadowed, text opacity. Empty settings keep the usual values.
When not to
If nothing should change in Discord, a value node or a check is lighter.
