When an expression contains a python reference such as:
me.inputs[0][0][me.sampleIndex]
or
me.inputs[0][0][me.chanIndex]
The Expression CHOP cooks every frame even though the input is not cooking.
Not seeing the issue with Tscript in same build:
ic(0, 0, $I)
Also not seeing issue with same python expression in 088, and I don’t recall seeing this with older official 099 builds.
