Reply To: Bug – For Loop containing While True (1.2.5b)

[GavalakisKeymaster]

Hey,

The While node is not exactly a While loop but rather a coroutine while. This is done to avoid accidental user error with a result of hanging the editor in an infinite loop.
If you replace the While.cs code with the following code bellow it will come up with the results you want, but I am not really sure I this would be a good change to add for the reasons above. Maybe I can add an option in the node inspector for that.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26

using System.Collections; using ParadoxNotion.Design;   namespace FlowCanvas.Nodes{   [Name("While True")] [Description("Once called, will continuously call 'Do' while the input boolean condition is true. Once condition becomes or is false, 'Done' is called")] [ContextDefinedInputs(typeof(bool))] public class While : FlowControlNode { protected override void RegisterPorts(){ var c = AddValueInput<bool>("Condition"); var fCurrent = AddFlowOutput("Do"); var fFinish = AddFlowOutput("Done"); AddFlowInput("In", (f)=> {   while (c.value){ fCurrent.Call(f); }   fFinish.Call(f); }); } } }

Let me know what you think.
Cheers.
