- **File:** `flowgraph/nodes/events/onUpdate.lua`

Overview

File: flowgraph/nodes/events/onUpdate.lua
Name: on Update
Category: logic

Core event node that triggers every frame. Provides delta time values and state enter/exit flow signals.

Pin Schema

Dir	Type	Name	Flags	Description
out	flow	enterState	impulse	Outflow when the project enters this state.
out	flow	flow		Outflow every frame.
out	flow	exitState	impulse	Outflow when the project leaves this state.
out	number	dtReal	hidden	Real delta time.
out	number	dtSim	hidden	Simulated delta time.
out	number	dtRaw	hidden	Raw delta time.

Key Methods

Method	Description
`onUpdate(dtReal, dtSim, dtRaw)`	Called every frame. Sets flow=true, enterState/exitState=false, outputs dt values, triggers.
`onStateStartedTrigger()`	Sets enterState=true, flow=false, dt=0, triggers.
`onStateStoppedTrigger()`	Sets exitState=true, flow=false, dt=0, triggers.
`work()`	No-op (event-driven).

Notes

This is the primary root node for most flowgraphs - the graph's onUpdateNodeId references it.
Auto-connect: if autoConnectResetPins preference is set, new "once" nodes get their reset pin linked to enterState.
