Whose turn
Whose move it is, and whether that's the member who clicked. Use it to answer someone pressing out of turn.

In a flow
“When a button is clicked, whose turn.”
Column button → Whose turn → If not Their turn → Reply privately: Why not.
What it does
Whose move it is, and whether that's the member who clicked. Use it to answer someone pressing out of turn. It's a step: it runs when the white wire reaches it, then the flow carries on from its Then pin. It gives 7 values later steps can use. Find it under Games & fun in the palette.
When to use it
Use it for games and fun: whose move it is, and whether that's the member who clicked. Use it to answer someone pressing out of turn.
When not to
If nothing should change in Discord, a value node or a check is lighter.
Typical wiring

Which match: the message it's played on, like {message.id} on a button, or Sent message's id.
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 {message.id}.
