Hi Matt,

If I understand correctly, you ran a simulation where you had x nodes which
had the Guard flag and y exit nodes..

Yes.

then you ran another simulation where you had (x+y) exit nodes which also
had the Guard flag? Is this correct?

No.

In simulation, there is node which has both Guard and exit flag, so called
guard-exit node (EE node). I put (x+y) EE node and ran the simulation.

Please refer to the shadow wiki below

https://github.com/shadow/shadow/wiki/Using-the-scallion-plug-in

Here you can see Guard+Exit relays.

Thanks,
Saurav
