(this is somewhat related to my other question, apologies for the crossover)

I'm working on a project where I'm reading data and sound from arrays, which are getting changed every time the data is read. This changes the data stored in the arrays, of course.

All of my arrays are using the "save contents" flag. The problem is that when I close the patch and re-open, the arrays are reset to the values they had when I clicked the "save contents" box. Is there any way to make the arrays save and store the new data that I've written to them whilst using the patch?

@amazingrolo Are you saving the patch before reopening?

ah ha, no I wasn't saving - I guess my muscle memory only kicks in when I've changed a patch chord

now I just need to work out how to make the patch save itself automatically every so often!

@amazingrolo

@ingox excellent, thanks! that is doing the trick for me.

(this is the thing I'm working on, if anyone's interested...I can post more about it once it's a bit more finished! https://twitter.com/yannseznec/status/1004749478350524416)
