So, I've got a simple problem with a gate. It's timing related, and, well, I hope its simple!

How can I make sure that the gate opens in the following patch before any of the information gets sent through?

I'm actually using a monome to generate the 3 co-ordinates, so that pressing a button will generate a message like '0 1 1' and letting go of the same button will generate '0 1 0'. The idea is that I can hold down multiple buttons to trigger events at the same time, and let go of individual buttons to turn them off.

But when I'm doing it at the moment, I seem to get stuck with '1 1' messages at the bottom when no buttons are being pressed down.

Its a common fault I seem to have, hope to be enlightened soon :)

Chris Muir, you have just made my world (and programming) a hell of a lot easier!

'zl' freaks me out a little, only because I've never really understood a practical implication I guess. Thanks for the introduction!

Glad I could help. zl is a great object, and well worth learning, but a message box works just as well here, although it's probably a little more "spendy" regarding CPU usage.
