Int Input

Overview

Supplies one integer as a constant. Use it to expose values whose integer nature matters, such as counts, steps, indices, and seeds. Use float_input when fractions are acceptable; this node is specifically for discrete values.

Usage tips

• When several nodes share the same integer, centralize it here so one edit updates the entire graph (for example, tile size or frame count).
• Common destinations include the index inputs of value_select, list_get, and sprite_sheet_frame_get.
• The convenient slider range (soft_*) and actual constraints (clamp_*) are separate. Changing a preset does, however, clamp the current value into the new soft range once.

Related nodes

• float_input — floating-point version

• value_select / list_get — common destinations for an index

• math_op / math_func — process integers (including converting a float to an integer with Floor)

• version: 2

Important behavior

• value
  • With show_on_node: true, it is always visible on the node itself.
• range_preset / soft_*
  • These determine only the operating range of the Inspector slider / knob.
  • When you change the preset, the current value is immediately clamped into the new soft range.
• clamp_min / clamp_max
  • These are hard clamps applied to the actual output value.
• step
  • This is the snap step for the output value.

In other words, UI convenience and actual output constraints are handled separately.

How to use

• New nodes start at PixelOffset (-32..32) with value = 0.
• For counts, choose Count; the current value is also brought into 1..16.
• When the destination is a promoted parameter, use Use destination range in the Inspector to match its soft range.
• Tighten clamp_min / clamp_max only when you need strict constraints.
