Flow Control Nodes

🔄 For Loop

Execute a set of nodes multiple times with incrementing index.

For Loop Start:

• Inputs:
  • total: Number of iterations (1-10000)
  • value1-5: Optional values to pass through loop
• Outputs:
  • flow: Flow control connection
  • index: Current iteration number (0-based)
  • value1-5: Passed-through values

For Loop End:

• Inputs:
  • flow: Connection from For Loop Start
  • value1-5: Values from loop body
• Outputs:
  • value1-5: Final values after loop completion

Usage:

[For Loop Start: total=5] → [Your Nodes] → [For Loop End]
         ↓                      ↑
      index=0,1,2,3,4          ↓
                           (auto-increments)

🔁 While Loop

Execute nodes while a condition is true.

While Loop Start:

• Inputs:
  • condition: Boolean to continue loop
  • value0-4: Values to pass through (5 carriers)
• Outputs:
  • flow: Flow control connection
  • value0-4: Passed-through values

While Loop End:

• Inputs:
  • flow: Connection from While Loop Start
  • condition: Boolean to continue or exit
  • value0-4: Values from loop body
• Outputs:
  • value0-4: Final values after loop exits

Usage:

[While Loop Start] → [Your Nodes] → [Compare/Condition] → [While Loop End]
        ↓                                                      ↑
    (pass values)                                          (check condition)

📊 Range Int

Generate a sequence of integers.

Inputs:

• start: Starting value (default: 0)
• stop: Ending value (exclusive, default: 10)
• step: Step size (default: 1)

Outputs:

• values: List of integers from start to stop with step

Example:

• start=0, stop=10, step=2 → [0, 2, 4, 6, 8]

🔢 Math Int

Perform integer mathematical operations.

Inputs:

• a: First integer
• b: Second integer
• operation: Math operation (add, subtract, multiply, divide, modulo, power)

Outputs:

• result: Result of the operation

Operations:

• add: a + b
• subtract: a - b
• multiply: a * b
• divide: a // b (integer division)
• modulo: a % b
• power: a ** b

🎨 Usage Guide

For Loop Example

[For Loop Start: total=10]
         ↓
    [index: 0-9]
         ↓
  [Generate Image per iteration]
         ↓
[For Loop End] → [Final Output]

While Loop Example

[While Loop Start: condition=True]
         ↓
  [Process Data]
         ↓
[Compare: check if done] → [While Loop End]
                                  ↓
                            (exit when condition=False)

Combining Flow Control

[Range Int: 0-100, step=10] → [For Loop Start]
                                      ↓
                                [Process Each]
                                      ↓
                                [For Loop End]
