Casting time problem

Hello, I've created a spell based on channel, and when used, it should summon 15 dummy casters and order them to shoot one carrionswarm each. However, i wanted them to shoot 3 waves with 5 swarms in each wave, with 1 second between each wave. To make this MUI, I made 3 levels of the carrion swarm, with 0, 1 and 2 seconds casting time. However, when i cast my spell, all the dummies shoot their spell instantly, ignoring the casting time. Anyone know why this happens? Here are the trigger:
Code:
Razor Winds
    Events
        Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Air Razor Winds 
    Actions
        Set Atemp_aloc = (Position of (Triggering unit))
        Set Razor_loc[1] = (Atemp_aloc offset by 100.00 towards (Facing of (Triggering unit)) degrees)
        Set Razor_loc[2] = (Razor_loc[1] offset by 60.00 towards 0.00 degrees)
        Set Razor_loc[3] = (Razor_loc[1] offset by 30.00 towards 0.00 degrees)
        Set Razor_loc[4] = (Razor_loc[1] offset by 30.00 towards 180.00 degrees)
        Set Razor_loc[5] = (Razor_loc[1] offset by 60.00 towards 180.00 degrees)
        For each (Integer A) from 1 to 5, do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                Unit - Create 1 Caster Dummy for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at Atemp_aloc facing Default building facing (270.0) degrees
                Unit - Add a 2.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
                Unit - Add Razor Winds  to (Last created unit)
                Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Undead Dreadlord - Carrion Swarm Razor_loc[(Integer A)]
        If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
            If - Conditions
                (Level of (Ability being cast) for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 2
            Then - Actions
                For each (Integer A) from 1 to 5, do (Actions)
                    Loop - Actions
                        Unit - Create 1 Caster Dummy for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at Atemp_aloc facing Default building facing (270.0) degrees
                        Unit - Add a 2.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
                        Unit - Add Razor Winds  to (Last created unit)
                        Unit - Set level of Razor Winds  for (Last created unit) to 2
                        Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Undead Dreadlord - Carrion Swarm Razor_loc[(Integer A)]
            Else - Actions
        If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
            If - Conditions
                (Level of (Ability being cast) for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 3
            Then - Actions
                For each (Integer A) from 1 to 5, do (Actions)
                    Loop - Actions
                        Unit - Create 1 Caster Dummy for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at Atemp_aloc facing Default building facing (270.0) degrees

                        Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Undead Dreadlord - Carrion Swarm Razor_loc[(Integer A)]
            Else - Actions
        Point - Remove Atemp_aloc
        For each (Integer A) from 1 to 5, do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                Point - Remove Razor_loc[(Integer A)]

That didn't help at all. Starts the effect of an Ability worked better.

    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before
  • The Helper The Helper:
    We now have a web designer at my job. A legit talented professional! I am going to get him to redesign the site theme. It is time.

    I got one more day of community service and then I'm free from this nonsense! I polished a cop car today for a funeral or something I guess
  • Varine Varine:
    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled

    How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    I am not big on the recipes I am just promoting them - I use the site as a practice place promoting stuff

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.

    You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences
