Save on a match
Keep a value with a match: a secret word, a player's hidden pick, a score. It goes when the match is forgotten.
match.save
In a flow
“When a button is clicked, save on a match.”
Rock button → Save on a match pick-{user.id} rock → Read from a match.
What it does
Keep a value with a match: a secret word, a player's hidden pick, a score. It goes when the match is forgotten. It's a step: it runs when the white wire reaches it, then the flow carries on from its Then pin. It gives 3 values later steps can use. Find it under Games & fun in the palette.
When to use it
Use it for games and fun: keep a value with a match: a secret word, a player's hidden pick, a score. It goes when the match is forgotten.
When not to
If nothing should change in Discord, a value node or a check is lighter.
