# Type conversions

FlowReactor can convert several variable types automatically. This is a really nice feature as it removes some additional conversion nodes for converting an Int value to a String value for example.\
But FlowReactor goes even further regarding GameObject variable types and Asset variable types.\
For example: If you have an FRAudioSource variable you can connect it to the Owner variable - which is a GameObject type - and FlowReactor will automatically get the audio source component from the owner game object.\
You could also connect the owner game object variable to a debug log variable and it will log the name of the owner game object.

**Examples**

Int to string
