Within a macro a local var can be be set by either the “Assign” or the “Set By-Ref Var” nodes. Is there a difference in any way?
Also, why is the “Variable” input pin of “Assign” a regular dot instead of a diamond?
Diamond means is it a “by-ref setting”. It can be used outside of macros, for example inside of a function it can set an external variable plugged to it (using a regular get), very handy.
I always have used “assign” to change local macro variables, I didn’t know it can be done with a “set by ref”

The pin shapes from “Assign” seem to be somewhat buggy (only visually as far as I can tell, the logic works as expected)
