Sorry to bug you all twice in the same night.

In the small patch below, I am getting this behavior: Begin at 0, inc up to some number, then dec back down to 0; [set 1] should assure that the next inc will restart [counter] at 1...But it restarts at 3!

This will count up to 1 then go back to 0 and then to one again with each bang sent the object.

Why not just set the arguments thusly:
[counter 0 1]
This will count up to 1 then go back to 0 and then to one again with each bang sent the object.


Well, if I understand right, I need the potential of a higher count than that. Maybe up to 56 (but not on every run). Various UI toggle send these bangs to increment the counter, and then at any point they need to be able to be toggled off and for the counter arrive back at 0. Seems like a simple thing, but I didn't totally understand the behavior I was getting.

BTW, this resolved itself-- I changed from using the set msg to a different one (don't have it in front of me, but I think it was setmin?) and it worked as-expected. Not quite sure why it was the way it was, but it works and I'll take it for now.
