Concating many strings at more efficient way

Solved!
Go to solution

Hello,

 

I am using a code that concating many different strings and data, but it looks very messy.

Is there a better efficient way to do it?

This is an example for a part where I have to connect all the data:

Thanks

The picture is too small to really tell what is going on, but it looks like you have a lot of constants being concatenated together.

 

When you have a lot of constants, it would be easier to combine them into a single constant.  When you have several strings interspersed by a lot of constants, then you should use Format Into String.  But the constants into the Format string and use multiple %s placeholders for all the variable values you have coming in.  That let's you reduce all the wiring down to a a single function node.
