What I want it to do is when one clip has finished it should either add or subtract one to the value which determines which clips plays. Each clip is assigned a value from the matrix. I also need the values restricted, so they stick within the numbers of clips there are to play.

So basicly, when one clip finishes it will either play the clip above it, or next to it, randomly selecting which direction it takes.

here is my patch so far:

Any help would be great.

also, i recommend elaborating with how your patch isn’t working as you expect.

Basically I need my patch to change which clip is going to be played after the clip has played. I’ve used a matrix system to choose which clip plays next. I want the decide objects to determine whether the clip in the matrix that is chosen next goes left or right one place or up or down one place. At the moment the number are not confined to a specific value either, so could end up being a large number outside the values of the matrix.

Also, as I only want one number changes for each time a clip plays, it doesn’t seem to bang the pack object before the matrix.
