 | **Output** | in `color`, `alpha` (number) | What the sprite is drawn with: the colour, clamped to 0-1, and the opacity, clamped too. Each input left unconnected stays the texture's. One per graph. |
 | **Property** | out `value` | Declares a number the sprite sets: `Name` is the row below the sprite's Shader dropdown and the uniform in the fragment; `Default`, `Min`, `Max` are the row's range. A name is one word (letters, digits, `_`), unique in the graph. |
 | **Color** | out `color` | A constant colour, picked in the inspector. |
+| **Number** | out `value` | A constant number, typed on the node. Handy where the same value feeds more than one input, or where an input has nothing to type on (Luminance, the Output's alpha). |
 | **Add**, **Subtract**, **Multiply**, **Divide** | in `a`, `b` (any) · out `result` | Arithmetic, per channel for colours. An unconnected input is the number typed on the node (0, or 1 for the second input of Multiply and Divide). |
 | **Mix** | in `a`, `b` (any), `t` (number) · out `result` | Blends from `a` to `b`: `t` = 0 is `a`, 1 is `b`, beyond that it extrapolates. |
 | **Luminance** | in `color` · out `value` | How bright a colour is (Rec. 709 weights), as one number. |
