Read a command

Split a typed command into its name, its words, and the rest, like !give @Sam 50 for helping.

Free plan text.command_words

In a flow

“Works out read a command whenever a step wired to it needs the answer.”

!give @Sam 50 for helping → give · [@Sam, 50, for, helping] · rest after 2: for helping

What it does

Split a typed command into its name, its words, and the rest, like !give @Sam 50 for helping. It's a value node: no white pins, it works out its answer when a step wired to it needs it. It gives 6 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: split a typed command into its name, its words, and the rest, like !give @Sam 50 for helping.

When not to

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

Typical wiring

Sockets: settings you can wire

Text Text

The text to read, like a message.

What goes there: Type it in the side panel, or wire in text. e.g. Hello there

If it's empty: Optional. Left empty and unwired, the step runs without it.
