@RT-Chris The benefit of a centralized solution via main patch would be that all project data can be easily saved in one text file, although this can also be achieved otherwise. Anyhow, it is just a matter of personal style.

@RT-Chris Check out [pdcontrol] with the [dir( message.

Another way could be to organize the saving from the main patch. Especially if the contents to be saved are all in arrays or similar, the main patch can access them without even touching the abstractions.

Here a version of [concat] that supports floats in both the list and the fill:

concat.zip

@RT-Chris Here is an example for [savestate] using [route] to sort the values (in the subpatch): savestate_demo2.zip. You can use the same method with [text].

@Doug_Meatloaf flip.pd

A generalized abstraction that allows any characters between list elements.

concat.zip

@RT-Chris [savestate] is very similar to [text] in that it just saves lists in lines.

You can as well put other values in then lists from arrays. I would prepend the values / lists by a signifier and use [route] to sort them afterwards.

@RT-Chris Yes, i forgot setting the array size. See here: savearrays.pd.

[text set highnumber] just adds the line to the end of the text. Doesn't matter if it is 1000000 or 100000000.
It adds a line and the semicolon marks the end of the line. So each array in one line of the text and reverse. No magic here.

@raynovich Maybe MobMuPlat is another option, connected to the main patch via local network and OSC.

Just a simple animation
