In a flow
“Works out work out a formula whenever a step wired to it needs the answer.”
x = 40 coins, y = 3 → round(x * 1.1 ** y) → 53
What it does
Any sum in one node, with x, y and z, instead of a chain of maths nodes. 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 Values in the palette.
When to use it
Use it whenever a sum would take three or more maths nodes, like a price with tax and a discount, or XP with a bonus.
When not to
Wire values into x, y and z. Dividing by 0 gives 0 with Worked off, so check Worked before you trust the result.
