incrementation happens in an internal function w/clock which can be set to false for external usage (e.g. running on crow)
this all relies on public allowing nested tables — if not we gotta go in a different direction (probably just using a custom pattern recorder)
ok actually the above is probably maybe(not) a better idea - I’m relying a little too much on nest_ to cover crazy ideas
basically the possible limitation of non-nested tables in public is encouragement to share data with crow in musical terms rather than interface terms - i.e. scale degrees rather than x,y positions, and unique sequences for time & notes which has interesting possibilities
instead, make public_time !
keyed targets linked to unique sequins + separation of time
