feature request logic nodes

Most helpful comment

Had some ideas, open for discussion (sorry for all those flashing gifs):

nodelabel_merge nodelabel_loop
nodelabel_object nodelabel_timer

If the sockets from which the values are taken are connected, either only the regular node label is displayed, or in case of the loop node x...5 is displayed for example if the From socket is connected.

An interesting option, but you only need to do this for certain types of nodes. I would suggest only for math nodes, and naming them not Divide, but Math: Divide and Vector Math: Divide, respectively.
My assumptions about the difficulties that may arise for other nodes:

  • 'Space' Down - you can understand that this is Keyboard. But beginners can find it difficult to navigate and formulate their questions. He had a problem, how can he understand/remember from the name ‘Space’ Down that this is the Keyboard node?
  • ‘Up’ Down, ’A’ Down, ‘B’ Down are the Keyboard or Gamepad or Virtual Button nodes?

If you just add, the name of the nodes can become long, for example, Keyboard Down ‘Space’.
You need to be very careful about the name so as not to confuse the user.

By the way, it is possible for nodes in which you can dynamically change the number of parameters, indicate how many values ​​in the name (for example, in arrays, switch and others).

@e1e5en-gd , that makes sense. Also as the keyboard node is not that much repeated in the node tree (only a few commands) then the user can name it as it want :+1:

That is amazing!

One question: the timer node when minimized is bigger than others, there is not a way to take advantage of this and split its label in two lines? Expanding the label vertically seems to use less space than horizontally.

@MoritzBrueckner, That's cool!

Thanks :) If you have some improvement suggestions let me know.

I don't think so, would be nice to have though.
