#Gradual Light adjustment stopping around 40%

I have two automations, one turns off the lights, and the other turns them on.

This problem originated with the off version which stopped around 40% brightness just like the On version does, but the off version works fine now, so I copied it and tried reversing the settings to make the On version.

What could I do to fix the problem?

2 seconds is just to make the test go by faster. It would likely be set to 15 seconds, or whatever 1% brightness per tick until 100% brightness from off ends up being over a 30 minute period

99/255 = 39%, which is why it's stopping at ~40%

Works fine, but I have a new problem and I've reopened this to keep the context

I have an off automation and the on automation, but sometimes one doesn't end and keeps going, then they're infinitely trying to control the light levels.

What can I change to stop that?
