Rotor Task TimeonTarget_Trial

I've attached the script for a rotor task study I'm trying to run to assess challenge-seeking. I'm using the same code I've used for many other rotor task studies, but for some reason something's off with the timeontarget_trial variable, and it isn't calculating correctly. It consistently says that the time on the circle is only a few milliseconds, even if it was the majority of the time. Any help would be appreciated.

I am unable to reproduce this. There is ultimately only a single trial that will calculate & record any "time on target" (one of the test1a to test6a trials, depending on participant's speed choice). Data is calculated and recorded fine as far as I can tell, see attached file with speed choice 2 (i.e. test2a).

It might be helpful if you could provide actual data file(s) showing the "It consistently says that the time on the circle is only a few milliseconds, even if it was the majority of the time" issue.
