Let’s say there is an opcode which runs after a k-rate conditional testing.
Inside the opcode there is a time based k-rate parameter that should renew each time running the opcode, but doesn’t.
From the floss manual (and trying) I understood:
k init 0 (only 0 from the start and lost afterward)
k = 0 (k is 0 all the time, so nothing really happens)
Really, how do you renew a continuously changing variable like a counter (inside UDO) ?
I’m curious.
You can just put k1 = 0 inside a block of code that will only get executed under the right conditions, i.e:
if k1 == 100 then
k1 = 0
endifThis is it in a nutshell :
opcode setDecay k, k
k1 xin
kCount = 0
while k1 == 100 do
kCount += .001
od
ky = exp(-kCount)
xout ky
endop
if k1 == 100 then
ky setDecay k1
Now, it crashes half of the time and the other time it doesn’t react.
Can you post the full code, and format it using the </> button in the editor. I’m not sure what you’re trying to do here, but in the example you post, if k1 is 100 you will probably enter an infinite loop, which should bring about a crash…
Well, the entire code is about 3000 lines, but I think you’ll get the giste in this shortened example.
The problem remains the same.

f0 z i1 0 z [aaaa.csd|attachment](upload://kg3TzhN8YjwQQQmzjUP6PcyGPvM.csd) (1.5 KB) Can you format the code?
If you use while you will enter into an infinite loop whenever the condition is true. Should you not be using if?
It works both ways, but the counter doesn’t reinitialize whatsoever with either = 0 or init 0.
With init, it continues where it left off last time; and with eaquals, it doesn’t do the incrementing at k-rate.
I can’t really follow your code here, but if all you wish to do is reset the counter on each click, you can just check if one of the input vars has changed value. I stripped down your code to remove the bits I didn’t get:

Sussed it.
Finally.
Strange though it doesn’t do the incrementing when including kCount = 0 beforehand.
No, because if you do kCount = 0 it will set kCount to 0 on every k-cycle.
I see
