Reply To: Bind Node Inputs to Blackboard [Feature Request]

[Gavalakis]

Hello,

I did indeed thought about this back when I was creating the framework, but in the end I opted not to allow this for a few different reasons, but most importantly due to the following two:
1) I didn’t want to have two different ways to “connect” a variable (bind directly and through node connection), as a way to streamline the editor (by limiting the possibilities).
2) Due to the potential enormous amount of total ports that can exists within a flowScript, there would have been an initialization performance drop if each of those ports were made possible to directly bind to a variable (regardless of whether or not they were actually bound, but rather only to support that possibility).

With that said, I could look into the possibility of allowing this at least in the context of Macros only as per your request 🙂
Thanks!
