Chainflow Branch (Flowgraph Node)

Overview

• Node Name: Chainflow Branch
• Category: logic
• File: extensions/flowgraph/nodes/logic/chainFlowBranch.lua

Routes chain-flow to either True or False output based on a boolean condition. Similar to the standard Branch node but operates exclusively with chain flow pins.

Pin Schema

Input Pins

Output Pins

Behavior

• work() - When chain flow is active, routes to True or False based on the condition. When no flow, both outputs are false.

How It Works

Chain flow is a special flow type in BeamNG flowgraphs that ensures sequential execution order. This node provides conditional branching within a chain flow context, guaranteeing that downstream nodes execute in the correct order.

Unlike the regular Branch node, this one has no passthrough flow output - it only outputs chain flow on True or False.

Example Usage

-- Used in chain-flow contexts where execution order matters
-- Connect chain flow input and a boolean condition
-- Only one of True/False will receive chain flow

-- Equivalent logic:
if condition then
  -- True chain continues
else
  -- False chain continues
end
