In a flow
“When a button is clicked, take a slot.”
Button Sign up → Take a slot (16) → If Got one → Give role Player; else Reply: full!
What it does
First come, first served: the first members get a slot, each one once, until they run out. It's a step: it runs when the white wire reaches it, then the flow carries on from its Then pin. It gives 4 values later steps can use. Find it under Logic in the palette.
When to use it
Use it to decide what happens next: first come, first served: the first members get a slot, each one once, until they run out.
When not to
If nothing should change in Discord, a value node or a check is lighter.
