Hi,
I will be creating a lot of materials in the near future and was wondering whether there is some trick to connecting nodes.
For example:

I want to connect a 'projection input' node to 8 image textures at the same time. Is there a way to do it instead of going one by one?

Also is there maybe some script that would connect image texture files to correct slot based on some naming convention (Diffuse, Roughness, Specular etc.)?

Thanks!

I have a script that makes it slightly more easy, but I have no idea where I gotten it so I'll attach it here. It allows you to select two nodes and then auto-make a connection.

I'd love to know if there are similar scripts to this out there
