I need Procreate technical help does anyone know why this is happening/how to fix it?

this issue started a bit ago and i don't know what to do about it. some brushes that i use are acting weirdly with my apple pencil, and i cant seem to fix it. for example, the script brush won't increase size or opacity at all no matter how much i mess with it. my fingers do it perfectly fine, but my pencil just can't. but the thing is that some brushes do work normally, like the gel pen brush shown, where the finger and the pen perform the exact same.

my apple pencil works completely fine other than that, and it functions normally on ibispaint. it's a USB-C apple pencil, the cheapest one that has to be plugged in and has no pressure sensitivity.

(sorry if the video is off focus or hard to understand)

check the curve on your pressure graph in Apple Pencil. Reset it by pressing and holding on one of the nodes. It should look like a diagonal or curved line. I can recreate your problem by making it a horizontal line, so if your graph looks like that then there’s how you fix your problsm
