Describe the problem or limitation you are having in your project
When creating a smoothstep and step node, visual shader auto connects to the first port, which is "edge", which is almost never the case in the flow of development of VS: normally you drag out the pin from the value first and add the edges later. At least for me, I haven't dragged the edge first so far, it's always been the value.
Describe the feature / enhancement and how it helps to overcome the problem or limitation
There's two options to solve this:
- change the order of parameters in the shader nodes (compat-breaking)
- give nodes an option to specify the default port for connection (not compat breaking)
Describe how your proposal will work, with code, pseudo-code, mock-ups, and/or diagrams
add a get_default_port overrideable function
If this enhancement will not be used often, can it be worked around with a few lines of script?
no
Is there a reason why this should be core and not an add-on in the asset library?
yes
