What it does
Add to a number kept in a JSON object, like a win count. 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 when a step needs a value worked out first: add to a number kept in a JSON object, like a win count.
When not to
For a value that never changes, type it into the setting instead of wiring a node.
