Once again, it has come to my attention that I _still_ was using wrong math in this extension. So once again, I have fixed the extension (for hopefully the last time). Apparently, Arcade runs at 48 fps, not 30, as stated in this post:

Should have known something was still wrong with the regular delta block, as it still wasn’t naturally giving a 1 and I had to do a max function to cap it off and not make it be slower.
