Here’s a solution … I think you can work with it … https://www.desmos.com/calculator/zbicsifmus

I think I may be able to make this work. I am not familiar with tickers that much. Could you explain what the d in your update time function is doing? [Screenshot 2024-10-21 at 6.50.53 PM]

It is not actually just a ‘d’ … it’s ‘dt’ all together … It’s a special notation that you can use only inside the ticker and gives you the elapsed time from the last time that ‘Run’ was called. So you can add all the dt’s and get the total elapsed time from the start … U_updateTime(x) = t->t+x, so…

Thanks so much! I’m going to work on this and send the graph within the week!
