Loop node
Forum › Makinom Scripting
Hello!
I'm having some trouble understanding how to use the Loop node in a formula.
This is my most basic setup. My expectation would be that the Value node would loop 3 times, giving a final output of 3 once the Loop is finished. However, when I test the formula it appears to continue infinitely, and my editor freezes.
Can you see what I'm doing wrong?
Thx :)
Update: I've noticed it works fine if I set the counter to be Global instead of Local - is that normal? It feels like it should work with a Local counter also, no?

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
I also get the same problem if I try to do it manually, like I used to do in Ork 2. The version below also works fine with a Global counter variable, but not if I use a Local.
On the other hand, the Ork 2 version underneath works fine with a Local counter variable.
I guess there's some nuance between the Variables in Ork 2 and Ork 3 that I'm missing?
Will be fixed in the next update.
