this piece of code indicates that subtracting 1 from a var works as expected, providing vars are indeed bytes and no overflows occur
Code:
cunder var byte
tempsetc var byte
ct var byte
ct=50
pause 2000
Debug "Start",13 ,10
for tempsetc = 1 to 255
cunder = (tempsetc - 1)
Debug 13 ,10,"cunder = " ,#tempsetc," - 1 = ", #cunder
if ct <= cunder then
Debug 9, #ct ," <= ", #cunder
else
Debug 9, #ct ," > ", #cunder
endif
next
stop
result

you need to provide a compliable example that demonstrates the problem
