To the OP: It is often a good idea to simplify one's code when asking
for help. That will make it easier to understand.

But don't simplify to the point where the code doesn't actually run, or
doesn't demonstrate the behaviour you're reporting! Instead, post a
minimal working example of the thing you want explained.

To discuss the code and present advice, people will want to run your
code for themselves to see what you're seeing, or as close as they can
get. Make that easier for them by ensuring your example actually does
what you say it does.
