Adding a value to object position in Xpresso
Hi, I have a simple cuestion(I think): How can I add a value to the position of an object in Xpresso, without locking the position to that value? Something like in after effects expressions:
myValue = 10;
myValue + valueThanks!

In Xpresso you would use a Calculate>Add node. Feed in cube’s Y pos for example, and then create a constant node and set it to 100. Then feed that into the add node. Feed the result back into the Cube’s Y pos In port.
When you do this, however, it will execute on every frame, so if you just want it to happen once you’ll also need to use time and compare nodes to switch on the Cube node at a particular frame.

Thanks Adam, I didn’t tell that the value I wan to add is changing over time(I’n new in Xpresso sorry), so on each frame it adds the new position, and the object falls to the infinite. However, I found an easiest solutinon while trying what you say, I simply nested my object into a null. Thanks for help!
