Hi list,
I've been doing some patching with [route] and came across a problem - I'd love it if someone could explain why this happens otherwise I think it's a bug.
Basically I'm sending a message with one item to a route object with an argument of the same name. For example:
[start (
|
[route start]
This is connected to a [pack f]. When I bang the start message the route object outputs a bang, which in turn should output the stored number in the pack object. However, this does not happen (which is the problem).
If I connect a [t b] after the [route] and before the [pack f] it works. It also works with [f ] instead of [pack f] and a [select] object will correctly bang the pack. I've attached a patch to show this.
What seems weird is that it is not a problem with either [route] or [pack f] on their own, but rather only when they are connected.
Thanks,
Joe
