Fusion 360/Haas: How can I move my table to a specific place at the end of a run?

Hi. I use Fusion 360 with the Haas NGC post provided by Autodesk to control my Haas Mini Mill.

I changed the "Home Position Center" variable set to true so I don't have to click it every time in the post dialogue:

This gets me most of the way there [At the end of each run the table moves forward in Y as much as possible to the operator and then in X to center the table to the spindle] but the problem is the door is offset to the right of the spindle. So unless I manually edit the nc program to go to "X-16." every time the vice is too far right to quickly access.

I'd like the table to move forward in Y and in X to -16 at the same time at the end of the run so the vice/part is centered to the door, not the spindle. Not forward in Y and then moving to -16. in X like a dogleg path. I'd like both X/Y to move at the same time so the table moves diagonally.

I really know next to nothing about programming. But I don't want someone to do this for me. I like downloading the latest post every few months when Autodesk updates the post so I'd need to keep making this edit.

I'm sure this is possible and probably super easy but I don't think I can figure it out.

EDIT: So basically I just want every program I post to have this line right before the M30:

The simplest way to do this is to comment out the following code in the onClose function.

/*if (getProperty("homePositionCenter")) { // <<< ADD /* TO THE BEGINNING OF THE LINE if (hasParameter("part-upper-x") && hasParameter("part-lower-x")) { var xHome = (getParameter("part-upper-x") + getParameter("part-lower-x")) / 2; } else { var xHome = machineConfiguration.hasHomePositionX() ? machineConfiguration.getHomePositionX() : toPreciseUnit(0, MM); } writeBlock(gMotionModal.format(0), "X" + xyzFormat.format(xHome)); // only desired when X is in the table writeRetract(Y); }*/ // <<< ADD */ TO THE END OF THE LINE

And the add these lines directly after the lines you commented out.

if (getProperty("homePositionCenter")) { writeBlock(gFormat.format(53), gMotionModal.format(0), "X" + xyzFormat.format(toPreciseUnit(-16, IN)), "Y" + xyzFormat.format(0)); }
