• gestalt
  The gestalt for the custom node, can be created using PlasmaModding.CustomNodeManager.CreateGestalt
• name
  The display name for the port in-game
• description
  The description for the port in-game
• operation
  The id number that will be used in the [SketchNodePortOperation(x)] attribute in the custom node's Agent class to describe this node being activated

Returns:

• New AgentGestalt.Port object for a port.

Result:

• Adds the created port to the gestalt provided through the gestalt parameter

CreatePropertyPort(AgentGestalt, string, string, Behavior.Data.Types, bool, Behavior.Data?, string?)

Namespace: PlasmaModding

Class: CustomNodeManager

public static AgentGestalt.Port CreatePropertyPort(AgentGestalt gestalt, string name, string description, Behavior.Data.Types datatype = Behavior.Data.Types.None, bool configurable = true, Behavior.Data? defaultData = null, string? reference_name = null);

Parameters:

Required Arguments:

• gestalt
  The gestalt for the custom node, can be created using PlasmaModding.CustomNodeManager.CreateGestalt
• name
  The display name for the port in-game and the name it will be referenced by when calling PlasmaModding.CustomAgent.GetProperty if reference_name is null
• description
  The description for the port in-game

Named Arguments

• datatype - default: Behavior.Data.Types.None
  A value in the Behavior.Data.Types enum that describes the type of data that the port should accept
• configurable - default: true
  Whether or not the property should be manually editable
• defaultData - default: null
Behavior.Data object matching the type specified by the parameter datatype describing what the default value of the property should be
• reference_name - default: null
  If this value is not null, this string will be used to reference the port when calling PlasmaModding.CustomAgent.GetProperty instead of name, Must use if multiple property ports with the same name are present

Returns:

• New AgentGestalt.Port object for a port.

Result:

• Adds the created port to the gestalt provided through the gestalt parameter

CreateOutputPort(AgentGestalt, string, string, Behavior.Data.Types, bool, Behavior.Data?, string?)

Namespace: PlasmaModding

Class: CustomNodeManager

 public static AgentGestalt.Port CreateOutputPort(AgentGestalt gestalt, string name, string description, Behavior.Data.Types datatype = Behavior.Data.Types.None, bool configurable = true, Behavior.Data? defaultData = null, string? reference_name = null)

Parameters:

Required Arguments:

• gestalt
  The gestalt for the custom node, can be created using PlasmaModding.CustomNodeManager.CreateGestalt
• name
  The display name for the port in-game and the name it will be referenced by when calling PlasmaModding.CustomAgent.WriteOutput if reference_name is null
• description
  The description for the port in-game

Named Arguments

• datatype - default: Behavior.Data.Types.None
  A value in the Behavior.Data.Types enum that describes the type of data that the port will output
• configurable - default: true
  Whether or not the property should be manually editable
• defaultData - default: null
Behavior.Data object matching the type specified by the parameter datatype describing what the default value of the property should be
• reference_name - default: null
  If this value is not null, this string will be used to reference the port when calling PlasmaModding.CustomAgent.WriteOutput instead of name, Must use if multiple output ports with the same name are present

Returns:

• New AgentGestalt.Port object for a port.

Result:

• Adds the created port to the gestalt provided through the gestalt parameter
