How can I keep the players pan from going into the negatives? I've tried player.pan %= 360; player.pan = clamp(player.pan, 0, 360);// this only allows for left panning Im not to sure what to do to overcome this. can someone please help me?

Code: if ( abs(angle) < 45 ) // front else if ( abs(angle) > 135 ) // back else if ( angle > 0 ) // left else // right Anyway cycle(angle,0,360); does the job. Salud!
