Moving Head Reverse Pan

[EpicEventTn]

In 3D View, if I set the orientation of my moving head, then reverse the pan so it will do the opposite of another moving head, I get a weird result. In the 3D viewer the end result is correct, but it has to swing all the way around to get there instead of just moving right from it's home position? Is this just a terrible glitch in the program that I have to deal with when programming with the visualizer instead of my live rig, or am I doing something wrong?
