Hello C., and all,

For PlantUML team, here is a minimal not working example:

@startuml
state A {
  state o1 <<outputPin>> #red
  state o2 <<outputPin>> #red

  state X {
       state i1 <<inputPin>>
  }

}
@enduml

Then, for all, see pseudo-similar issue here (on the same topic: Pin, Point or Port):

Modifying names to fit and adding workflow

@startuml
skinparam linetype ortho

state A {

state e1 <<inputPin>>
state e2 <<inputPin>>
state e3 <<inputPin>>
  state X {
       state e4 <<inputPin>>
       state e5 <<inputPin>>
       state e18 <<outputPin>>
       state e19 <<outputPin>>
  }
  state Y {
      state e6 <<inputPin>>
      state e7 <<inputPin>>
      state e20 <<outputPin>>
  }
  state z {
      state e8 <<inputPin>>
      state e9 <<inputPin>>
      state e21 <<outputPin>>
  }
  state a {
      state e10 <<inputPin>>
      state e11 <<inputPin>>
      state e22 <<outputPin>>
  }
  state b {
      state e12 <<inputPin>>
      state e13 <<inputPin>>
      state e23 <<outputPin>>
  }
  state c {
      state e14 <<inputPin>>
      state e15 <<inputPin>>
      state e24 <<outputPin>>
  }
  state d {
      state e16 <<inputPin>>
      state e17 <<inputPin>>
      state e25 <<outputPin>>
  }
 

state e26 <<outputPin>>
state e27 <<outputPin>>
state e28 <<outputPin>>
state e29 <<outputPin>>
state e30 <<outputPin>>

}
[*] --> e1
e1 -> e6
e20->e26
e26->done
