I want to move two servos (X and Y) from node-red with the node-red-contrib-ui-joystick and an esp32 card, through the MQTT protocol but I don't know how to make that node return numeric values, I only get the addresses like: up, down, right and left
Here are 2 examples of mapping strings to numeric output.

You could also use Javascipt in a function node or JSONata in a change node.
