Cook dependancy loop and creating feedback

Beginners
1

I’m trying to recreate this effect digitally (How to make fractals without a computer - YouTube). I got it to work in my clumsy begginer ways by using feedback and then looping the output to the start but I keep getting the warning “cook dependancy loop” and it is very prone to breaking. Is this something I should worry about going forward? Is there a better way? Or is this warning something I can ignore? Thanks for any help. Toe file included.

You’ll want to use the Feedback TOP and Feedback CHOPs to break dependency loops. Without those, yes things will randomly break depending on the cook order.

Ohh ok. Wasn’t sure what you meant at first but it made sense once I opened up TD. Did feel like the way I was doing it was foolish but that’s what you get for programming after midnight.
Thanks!
