Counter Questions
1. What’s a good way to stop a counter (@ 0) without turning off the metro?
2. Is there a way to add/subtract an amount other than 1 to a counter? (like make it jump back 10)?
TIA!
1. You can use the third outlet to report when the counter reaches its maximum value and use that to close a [gate].
2. Use a [*] after your counter to increase the step size.

There is a jam message to Counter that allows you to set it to some arbitrary place.
maybe . . .
1. if you run a counter through a number box, you can limit the min / max value
2. run the counter thru a [+ 10] or a [- 10]
i also have a counter question.
if i have a counter object with no minimun, maximum or direction specified (the object is just counter), how far will it count? infinite? or 2^64?
thank youu
Infinite would be a good trick. It uses a signed 32 bit integer, so 2,147,483,647.
if no direction is specified, it will just jump across the garden like a little dog.
Or you can make your own counter, and just select 0 to make the count pause:
