Using Tasks in FlowScripts

All NodeCanvas created Tasks (Actions/Conditions) can be used right inside a FlowCanvas flowscript. After you have downloaded and imported the FlowCanvas bridge extension two new nodes will be available to be added in a FlowScript: ‘Task Action’ and ‘Task Condition’.

Task Action and Task Condition nodes can be assigned any NodeCanvas ActionTask or ConditionTask respectively. The parameters of those tasks can also as usual be linked to the variables of the FlowScript graph if required.

Below is an example of a FlowCanvas flowScript, using a TaskAction (top) and a TaskCondition (bottom) nodes.
