A tool to loop repeatedly as long as needed. You define a start and a step value in the options view. With every step trigger it counts up by one. After the maximum value was reached, it falls back to the start value, again counting up by one per trigger. And so on. Every time the maximum value is reached, a boolean informs you about it. Reset should be self-explanatory.
Example: In the image above the options are set to Start = 0 and Step = 3. The resulting values are 0, 1, 2, 0, 1, 2, 0, 1, 2, 0, 1, 2 ... forever, if you wish so.

It is helpful whenever you have to repeatedly step through some kind of list, switch selectors in a fixed manor, etc.

Leave a comment if you like the tool ;)

Thank you for making me feel like an idiot :lol:
I swear I looked over it, but since I always looked for the keyword 'loop', the advanced counter slipped through. Woohoo, I reinvented the wheel! :oops:
