Mattijs

When I have a bpatcher in a bpatcher in a bpatcher, and I save the innermost patch (sub2 in example), the outermost patch and the one inside it keep updating their interface infinitely and max hangs.

btw, I noticed that this doesn't occur when a) there is no bpatcher in sub2 b) there is only one bpatcher in sub1.

Description:
When I have a bpatcher in a bpatcher in a bpatcher, and I save the innermost patch (sub2 in example), the outermost patch and the one inside it keep updating their interface infinitely and max hangs.

Steps to reproduce:
- save the patches below
- open all patches
- save sub2

Expected behaviour:
main and sub1 update once

Please let me know if you can confirm,
- Mattijs

btw, I noticed that this doesn't occur when a) there is no bpatcher in sub2 b) there is only one bpatcher in sub1.

I can confirm this behaviour - I was never able to reproduce it, but 

I have been bitten many times. Nice work finding it!

Yeah Ive had this happen several times. Very annoying bug.

Thanks for the report, Mattijs, and for the clear steps and example

patches. I was able to reproduce here as well. We've logged this bug

in our tracking system and will try to get around to fixing it as time

No problem, happy to contribute. Actually the credits for this one go to Bas van der Graaff, member of the SmadSteck team (we tracked down the problem together).
