Need help with autoindexing array of boolean indicators.

Thank you for the information and your advice! But I'd like to learn a way for this particular block diagram (autoindexed array) to just read the value when the last boolean is true.


Your question is incomplete, because you don't define "what value". The last Boolean is available at a "last value" tunnel, so you can take that and do whatever you need to do with it right after the loop has completed (since it is the last value, the loop will of course stop right there, else it would not be the last, right?)

 

For example you could OR or AND it with some other scalar Boolean.

What are you using here?

cause mine looks like this and doesn't do anything.0.png

It should be true after the 5 iterations but that "value out" switch does nothing and I can't use it.

Also, what if I wanted to just use the "live" value of the indicator while it is being processed inside the second loop?

Well, you get the last reference out, so just read the value via another property node (yuk!).

 

You really (really!!!) need to start using data wires, not reference wires!

Oh! Didnt know that! 
Ok which do I use to read for property node?

"Value", but change to read.

 

As mentioned so many times, this is NOT the right way to do this!

You. Need. To. Listen. To. All. Of. Us. And. Drop. These. Seriously. (Seriously!!!). Bad. Coding. Habits. This. Is. Not. Scalable!

 

Really!

You are getting 'only the last ref out'. If you don't want to do the stuff in the loop, disable or put it in a case.

Getting the last value at the end of the loop was the "requirements", other things happen in the other iterations. I have given up of the "why???" long ago in this thread. It's like watching somebody using chopsticks to fold a shirt. 😮

I honestly felt like we were being trolled.
