Hello, you could use dynamic patching or use the dynamic send/recieves from mmb (which use dynamic patching). You can find them in the pd forum somewhere in the abstractions section. If I remember right. Greetings

Hey All
This might be a simple problem, but I can't see a way around it.
I'm making a patch involving a grid of toggles (each in an abstraction, so they can have rules to control them individually, also to relay this grid to a grid of squares in gem). Basically I've already set up [s $1-$2-state], in each to send it's position to a named bus. I've also got r $1-$2-control to control each toggle remotely, but that's aside.
I can use messages and non-logical sends to generate control messages, like so:
[pack f f f] | [$1-$2-control $3 (
Which can change any of the toggles on my grid.
So far, all well and good.
====== However ======
What I really need is for each abstraction to be 'aware' of it's neighbors. So while each one has two arguments, (it's co-ordinates on the grid), I need them to have receives based on it's arguments and some arithmetic. I could generate the right string for this like
[$1] [$2] | | [+ 1] [+ 1] | | [pack f f] | [$1-$2-state(
But I don't know of an object I can set like this. I can't find a receive which can be set with a message (in the same way that the non-logical sends can be made in a message box, it's all very perplexing).
As ever, help would be appreciated
Andrew
