Using Parallel Nodes

The Parallel Node can be used to simultaneously execute the events connected after it.

  1. Create a project with characters.
  2. Open the MP Node Graph panel. Right-click on the viewport space and choose Flow Node > Parallel.

    A new Parallel node will be inserted on view.

    Enable the Loop option on the Start node to play back the graph repeatedly in Go MD mode.
  3. Drag a flow line from the Start node’s output and connect it to the Parallel node’s input.
  4. Click the + button specific times to add outputs.

    For more information about the setups of the Parallel Node, refer to the Adjusting Attributes of Parallel Nodes section.
  5. Connect the outputs to different event routes.

    Note that these event routes are Character Nodes that drive the individual characters on stage to perform specific motions.
  6. Start MD Mode to view the animation result, all events of the character's performance will executed in parallel.
