Hi, I'm trying to make these cubes transition to twisted state in the middle and not-twisted in the beginning and end. Need help how to make a ramp and use it on the bend node (or any other way).

Yes, thank you! Also I didn't see before the purple line connecting to the bend node, can you explain to me what it is?

( bbox(-1,D_ZSIZE))

-1 mean the first space input.
