Hi,

I have a lot of live values from a rest api, that does not get spread out like I want it to.
I am not sure wether to fix this in max api, or in my node code.
If the value 1 comes first the next value (2) does not go through into the function box "if $i1 == 2 then 60 else 0" .

How do I fix this, do I fix this in my code or can I add a function/msg/object in max msp?

:-)))
