I may be wrong, but you just multiply any number that’s used every frame by delta. Delta isn’t anything complicated, it’s just a number that represents the time between frames ---

as @ScriptScraper said, delta time is the time between 2 frames. You multiply most numbers in an update loop to user or correctly. Some numbers like applying a jump to the player should not be multiplied though. It is basically how to treat lag. note that a lot of people call it dt instead of delta time (like me). Also, [1/dt equals the fps of the program](https://arcade.makecode.com/S14527-98199-57753-13047). As an interactive thing, I have made this: > **[delta time #2](https://arcade.makecode.com/S38337-52419-30635-88840)** > > Made with ❤️ in Microsoft MakeCode Arcade. ---

Specifically the time between the previous frame and the current frame. ---
