I know that one can use {;max buildcollective .....} to automatically build a standalone from a top-level patcher using a build script but it doesn't work if the patch is part of a project.

The only way that I can find to build a project is to do it from the Project window using the Manage Project menu it the bottom toolbar.

Is there any other way in which this can be done so that the process could be automated?

When I build my standalone, I initiate a process that updates the version number (used in several ways elsewhere in the Standalone) saves the project, and locks it, amongst other things. What I would like to do is to add something that then automatically builds the project before exiting Max.
