Duplicate Elements Geometry Node not in 3.1

Hey Jonathan, In the GeoNodes Ferris Wheel section, I got all the way to adding the Beam Plates and I didn't know 3.1 wouldn't have all we need. Duplicate Elements Node is missing, and it's very difficult to follow from there without it. I must have missed somewhere saying what version we have to have to follow properly. This has been awesome so far!!

    Hey David,
    The courses are usually released using the latest version of Blender, unless a new version of Blender is released during production.

    Geometry nodes have changed with every version of Blender since Geometry nodes in Blender was first introduced. 
    The Duplicate Elements node is available from v3.2+

    I personally never used v3.1 much because I found it quite buggy, and if I remember 3.2 was released fairly soon after anyway.
    Its normally recommended to use the latest version when starting a new project, but once started stick with that version.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks Adrian. I went ahead and upgraded to 3.4, coming from 2.93. My only advice would be to have an easy to see "must have version such and such or higher for this course." Having to upgrade in the middle of a project always makes me a little nervous. But anyway, once I got 3.4 rockin, all is well. Thanks again
