Not Turning at Desired Position

I am making a projectwhere a spaceship orbits different bodies (the earth, the moon and the sun), but the ship won't turn at the x positions I set it to.

You are using = in your comparisons. When you are moving at a direction other than 0,90,-90,180 the values of X and Y won't be exactly 100. It might be 100.003002. Therefore your comparison doesn't match. You can either use the ROUND function to change it back to whole numbers, or in your case, change your = to <

Now it's not going to the desired angle. I have it set so that it starts at 15˚, but it goes to -45˚ instead. What is wrong?

Because I said change = to < and you changed = to >
