11 months ago Hm this sounds almost impossible to implement for Junction due to the bookkeeping of array and dict object behind the scene. I guess a separate node for this makes more sense. Maybe Mirror that can detect if a Highway or Junction being connected then it will mirror accordingly.
I guess the basic implementation is something like this:
4 static pins: _data_in, _data_out, _layout_in, _layout_out.
All will accept junction or highway, but behave differently. Data pins will act like expected for transfer the data, while layout pin when connected with junction or highway node it will mirror the layout of the connected node. Maybe I could extend this by allowing multiple layout pins and therefore multiple different nodes and not just layout or junction are accepted.

The current implementation, which allows the user to specify a subset output of the input, gives a massive amount of flexibility. It's great and I'm sure I'll use it in certain circumstances (for example to change the vertical arrangement of the outputs)
But, in most cases, it would be faster and easier to maintain if the Junction node would simply and automatically create an output for every input it receives. Mirroring the list of inputs.
Not sure if this is something that should be done in a separate node (Junction+ ?), or if it could be enabled or disabled via a menu option.
