Why doesn’t this simple if statement work correctly?
applied to the position of a layer-
thisY = value[1];
if (thisY < 0){
thisY = thisComp.height + this.height;
}
[value[0], thisY – time*250] -

I just tried your expression and there is no error.
So it works but maybe not the way you intented it.
If you are trying to loop a linear motion from bottom to top it for sure cannot make it.You should tell what you actually want to do.

i seem to remember that a recent version of ae (maybe cs5.5 or 6) had an issue with the term ‘this’ in objects… i believe that it was adressed in an update, so make sure you have the latest update installed for your version of ae.

yes, trying to loop linear motion. what am I doing wrong?

I’m not sure exactly what you’re after, but play around with this and see if it gets you closer:
y = (value[1] – time*250)%thisComp.height;
if (y < 0) y += thisComp.height;
