Quick and efficient way to differentiate between patch instances?
I have multiple instances of a single patch. Is there a way to send and receive messages (preferably wireless) to a specific patch instance without renaming all the receive objects in each patch?
Otherwise a sent message is received by all patch instances.
The only method I can think of is prepending each message with a number and then using a routing method inside each patch.
That looks promising. I will have to rename all the receive objects then.
This method in combination with a forward object will tidy things up a great deal, thank you.
Can anyone explain why option 1 in the patch doesn't work yet option 2 does?
It is not terribly important, I'm just curious. I'll go with option 2 if option 1 isn't viable.
A comma in a message box is equivalent to 2 successive messages. With sprintf you're not generating 2 messages. See this:
Cool. That's clear now. Thanks again.
