  70. This is used by :ref:`VisualScriptCondition<class_VisualScriptCondition>` to redirect the sequence to the "Done" port after the ``true``/``false`` branch has finished execution.
  71. - **STEP_GO_BACK_BIT** = **33554432** --- Hint used by :ref:`_step<class_VisualScriptCustomNode_method__step>` to tell that control should return back, either hitting a previous :ref:`STEP_PUSH_STACK_BIT<class_VisualScriptCustomNode_constant_STEP_PUSH_STACK_BIT>` or exiting the function.
  72. - **STEP_NO_ADVANCE_BIT** = **67108864**
  73. - **STEP_EXIT_FUNCTION_BIT** = **134217728** --- Hint used by :ref:`_step<class_VisualScriptCustomNode_method__step>` to tell that control should stop and exit the function.

  75. Using this requires you to have at least one working memory slot, which is used for the :ref:`VisualScriptFunctionState<class_VisualScriptFunctionState>`.
