"10-degree heading bug" and the ability to use scripts for C

[Seat* 53]

I used your excellent tip to get rid of "10-degree heading bug. I used the script you suggested and it worked great. Thanks for that.
(A: AUTOPILOT HEADING LOCK DIR, Degrees) 1 + (> K: HEADING_BUG_SET)

(A: AUTOPILOT HEADING LOCK DIR, Degrees) 0 == if {359} els {(A: AUTOPILOT HEADING LOCK DIR, Degrees) 1 -} (> K: HEADING_BUG_SET)
My question now is if a similar script could be used to change the HSI course in 1 step instead of 10 as now. If possible, what would such a script look like?

Hello Thomas,

those scripts were too complicated. They can be shortened to this (dnor makes sure that the value stays in the 0-360 degree range):

(A:AUTOPILOT HEADING LOCK DIR, Degrees) 1 + dnor (>K:HEADING_BUG_SET)

(A:AUTOPILOT HEADING LOCK DIR, Degrees) 1 - dnor (>K:HEADING_BUG_SET)

and for the course:

(A:NAV1 OBS, Degrees) 1 + dnor (>K:VOR1_SET)

(A:NAV1 OBS, Degrees) 1 - dnor (>K:VOR1_SET)

I hope these are correct. When in doubt, take a look into the Event-IDs and Simulator Variables of the SDK documentation, it's all in there. Any SDK doc will do for these basic events, even the one from FSX.
