Ok, then just hit Ctrl + S whenever you changed something in gigedit's script 
editor. That will cause the script to be reloaded by the sampler to make your 
changes audible.

The trick here is that play_note() returns the note ID of that 
programmatically triggered new note. So you would use that note id and pass it 
to change_tune() like:

on init
  declare polyphonic $staccatoNote
end init

on note
  ...
  $staccatoNote := play_note($EVENT_NOTE + $n, $EVENT_VELOCITY)
  { let's say drop pitch by 30 cents immediately }
  change_tune($staccatoNote, -30c)
end note

Because obviously you just want to change the tuning of that sample; not of 
the original one. If you want to change the original one as well, let's say 
bring some randomness there as well:

  change_tune($EVENT_NOTE, random(-30C, +30C))

I guess you get the point.
