I am trying to make something, which curves the value of an angle, so something rotates smoothly. If it is at angle 359, and I tell it to turn to angle 0, it turns all the way around isntead of going one more degree to 0. How do I do that?

Use wrapvalue
Assuming you are using y angle:

angley#=wrapvalue(angley#)+1
or
angley#=wrapvalue(angley#)-1

depending if you want to rotate clokwise or anti-clockwise

this will wrap increments or decrements in the 0-360 range

span is at your wish: can be 10, 1, 0.1 ..whatever

angley#=wrapvalue(angley#+1)
or
angley#=wrapvalue(angley#-1)
