Hello! I think having different kinds of data possible to send and receive would be very interesting! I'm working on a project with Wwise and Unity and i need to send a list of numbers from unity to PD and I found out that only floats could be sent

[edit: I modified the topic to be a bit more clear]

So, heavy doesn't support pd [list] objects. However perhaps simply using [pack] [unpack] we could use a new kind of [r myList @hv_list] receiver/sender? Any interpretation will of course need to happen on the generator side. So someone would have to extend the Wwise and Unity targets.

I'm not sure what limitations we need to take into account. Is the length of the lists you are aiming to use deterministic?
