What it does
Set, add to, or put in or take out of any member's, channel's or the server's variable. It's a step: it runs when the white wire reaches it, then the flow carries on from its Then pin. It gives 2 values later steps can use. Find it under Storage in the palette.
When to use it
Use it to keep something between runs: set, add to, or put in or take out of any member's, channel's or the server's variable.
When not to
If nothing should change in Discord, a value node or a check is lighter.

What goes there: Type it in the side panel, or wire in a member. e.g. @Alex
If it's empty: Optional. Left empty and unwired, the step runs without it.
