![](https://692276616-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FN06Vv6nlwviUQ4hI2Kkd%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-6103bd8f41e10167cf7ce0c6910a2a62f377a826%2Fwave-options.png?alt=media)

## Description

Options that control a wave's messaging, whether it waits for room in the AI budget or attempts a partial spawn, and the wave's Extermination Percentage - the percentage of units that need to be killed before the wave ends.

## Node Type

Nodes fall into two basic categories: Data and Execution. This node supplies Data for an Execution node.
