What it does

How far along a goal is: percent, what is left and a bar. It's a value node: no white pins, it works out its answer when a step wired to it needs it. It gives 4 values later steps can use. Find it under Values in the palette.

When to use it

Use it when a step needs a value worked out first: how far along a goal is: percent, what is left and a bar.

When not to

For a value that never changes, type it into the setting instead of wiring a node.
