How to offset a direction by 180

I'm trying to move an actor using accelerate. I store the direction in an attribute that is set with a constraint attribute that is set to self.Rotation. The self.Rotation is off by 180 degrees. How can I use the attribute (game.Direction) and offset it by 180 degrees.

    I would just make an actor to add or subtract 180 to game.Direction

    That should work.
    I may be misunderstanding.

    You can't just subtract 180. If you're pointing at 110 degrees and you subtract 180 you would get 70 degrees which is not correct. It should be 290. I would like to do this with a formula.

    Add 180 and mod 360.

    (#+180)%360

    But subtracting 180 in your example would make it -70 which is still counts as 290. (360-70)

    I'll just use a rule.
