Right, I think I understand. You have a pattern that is changing length
under aux control and each time the pattern resets from it's current end
point, that counts as a playlist repeat. But you only want it to count
at step 16 ?
Is the progression of the length of the pattern consistent ? If so, you
could work out how many steps it takes to reach step 16, then set gbar
to that number with chg=B. Then the gbar reset/repeat count will
co-incide with the pattern reaching 16.
Is that any help ?

If I made it work such that a pattern with a dynamically modified length
only counted a playlist repeat when the 'real' last step was reached,
you could end up having playlists getting stuck on a pattern that never
reaches step 16.

However, there might be some aux events I could add that would let you
get this level of control. There is a playlist 'hold' flag, used oddly
enough for playlist hold in ple mode. If you set that 'on' on step 1,
and 'off' on step 16, the playlist would be prevented from advancing
until step 16 was reached. That seems easy enough...
