I see two problems here.

First, if you want variable x, you need to include your x axis
values in the data you send to plot.

Second, the domain of _1&o. lies between _1 and 1

Try:
   plot (;1&o.) _1 o. 8%~i:49

I think this amounts to solving for k=((dx%dt)^2)+(dy%dt)^2)
for some arbitrary function y of x so you can find the arbitrary
function x of t.

Instead of trying to approach this directly, I might try generating lots
of extra points, and then finding the distance between each point
and then doing a sum scan on them and then using I. to find points
roughly separated by an even interval and using those indices to
select from your original surplus of points.  (That said, I have not
tested this approach -- and note that ill-behaved functions could
still have unevenly spaced points, or other such issues.)
