Dear all,

I am using these Lua scripts to update the motion of objects in a gl world, but I can't seem to format the output lists so that I don't need to use a zl.join when I get back to Max. Any help is appreciated!

--begin LUA script example-orbit.lua

this.outlets=2 local S = 1. local Sc = 1.

function speed(v) S = v end

function size(v) Sc = v end

function list(...) local values = {...} local message={}

values[5] = Sc*values[10]*(math.sin(2*math.pi*values[9])) values[6] = Sc*values[11]*(math.cos(2*math.pi*values[9])) values[7] = 0. values[9] = values[9]+S*((values[8]-.5)/100.)

message={"setcell", INT, "val"}

outlet(0,message) outlet(1,values)

end

function int(v) INT=v end

--end LUA example-orbit.lua

--begin LUA example3.lua

this.outlets=2

function list(...) local values = {...} local message={}

values[5] = values[5]*2.-1 values[6] = values[6]*2.-1 values[7] = values[7]*2.-1

values[11] = values[10]

message={"setcell", INT, "val"}

outlet(1,values) outlet(0,message)

end

function int(v) INT=v

end

--end LUA example3.lua

Here is the patch in which I'm using these scripts:
