sorry if this sounds stupid but Im able to send numbers over a network using
the number -> send $1 -> netsend
but I cant seem to able to send a bang, what Ive tried is the bang(the black circle) -> send -> netsend but nothings happening, not even an error Its not being received on the other end at all
well, actually you are not sending a bang, but sending a null-list: when you click on "bang" (the black circle), it will trigger the [send(-message. the body of the send-message (everything after the "send" keyword) is non-existant. this is transmitted with netsend (probably it isn't since it is too small)
i guess, pd *should* handle null-lists (empty lists; lists with 0 arguments) as bangs, but the buhaviour concerning this is not fixed (at least i think so)
anyhow, you should transmit some data. you could use [send bang( to transmit a bang via netsend/netreceive. you could use anything else, like [send foobar(, which will result in [netreceive] outletting "foobar", which you can use to trigger something else (with [route])
