Messages travel down the wires at different times, so your 2 payloads are never at the function at the same time.

You will need to join the messages with a join node or save them to context storage, and fetch when needed.


Here is an example of context storage

[{"id":"d169c00e.e86a58","type":"ui_slider","z":"8d22ae29.7df6d","name":"","label":"slider","tooltip":"","group":"39975297.f7403e","order":3,"width":0,"height":0,"passthru":true,"outs":"end","topic":"","min":0,"max":"20","step":1,"x":100,"y":2140,"wires":[["12314e09.b59232"]]},{"id":"a13d87c0.8d4cd","type":"inject","z":"8d22ae29.7df6d","name":"","props":[{"p":"payload","v":"10","vt":"num"},{"p":"topic","v":"","vt":"string"}],"repeat":"","crontab":"","once":false,"onceDelay":0.1,"topic":"","payload":"10","payloadType":"num","x":100,"y":2220,"wires":[["72754745.375098"]]},{"id":"12314e09.b59232","type":"function","z":"8d22ae29.7df6d","name":"pl1","func":"msg.payload1= msg.payload;\nmsg.payload2 = (flow.get(\"storeP2\") || 10);\nflow.set(\"storeP1\", msg.payload);\nreturn msg;","outputs":1,"noerr":0,"initialize":"","finalize":"","x":280,"y":2160,"wires":[["50342ae9.8bf734"]]},{"id":"72754745.375098","type":"function","z":"8d22ae29.7df6d","name":"pl2","func":"msg.payload2= msg.payload;\nmsg.payload1 = (flow.get(\"storeP1\") || 10);\nflow.set(\"storeP2\", msg.payload);\nreturn msg;","outputs":1,"noerr":0,"initialize":"","finalize":"","x":273.33331298828125,"y":2222.66650390625,"wires":[["50342ae9.8bf734"]]},{"id":"50342ae9.8bf734","type":"function","z":"8d22ae29.7df6d","name":"Temperature1","func":"if(msg.payload1 > msg.payload2){\nmsg.payload = '0';\nreturn msg;\n}\nelse {\nmsg.payload = '1';\nreturn msg;\n}","outputs":1,"noerr":0,"initialize":"","finalize":"","x":490,"y":2220,"wires":[["49952583.65b3fc"]]},{"id":"39975297.f7403e","type":"ui_group","z":"","name":"weather","tab":"468df50a.5dca5c","order":1,"disp":false,"width":"6","collapse":false},{"id":"468df50a.5dca5c","type":"ui_tab","z":"","name":"weather","icon":"dashboard","order":1,"disabled":false,"hidden":false}]
