ds_list_select_relative

Returns a value from a list data structure in a position relative to a given value. If a relative position is beyond exents of list, the position is clamped to be within range. If current value isn't among the choices, the return value is undefined.

//  list == { "Hello", "Doctor", "Name" }
val = ds_list_select_relative("Name", -2, list);  //  val == "Hello"
val = ds_list_select_relative("Name", 2, list);   //  val == "Doctor"
ds_list_select_relative(current,delta,list)
Returns a value from a list data structure in a position relative to a given value.
