Projectile randomly being screwy

Yea, there's this spell where the hero creates a projectile and fires it forward.
Kinda' like shockwave, just that it deals damage based on how much "Rage" the caster has.

So, I made it in JASS.

The problem is that the spell frequently travels in the wrong direction or spawn wrongly (Instead of spawning at the caster, the dummy spawns at the caster with a polar offset, which is random, too).

I've tried to alleviate the spawning wrongly by pausing the caster -Failed-

Meh, here's the code, it's killing me to figure this out -___-

JASS:

scope CFCast initializer CFInit

   globals
      private constant integer CFraw = 'A02B'
      private constant integer Rageraw = 'A02C'
      private constant integer Dummy = 'h00A'
      private constant integer tickAmount = 20
      
      group Fordamage = CreateGroup()
   endglobals

   private struct CF
      private static CF data = 0
      private static CF data2 = 0
      
      unit caster
      real casterMAXHP
      real casterHP
      real casterX
      real casterY
      integer casterSTR
      integer CFLevel
      integer RageLevel
      
      unit dummy
      real dummyX
      real dummyY
      
      integer ticks = 0
      real radian
      real distance
      real damage
      
      group injured = CreateGroup()
      
      static method CFDamage takes nothing returns boolean
         local CF cf = CF.data2
         local unit u = GetFilterUnit()
         local sound s = gg_snd_CF
         local location l = GetUnitLoc(u)
         
         if IsUnitEnemy(u, GetOwningPlayer(cf.caster)) == true and IsUnitInGroup(u, cf.injured) == false then
            call PlaySoundAtPointBJ(s, 100.00, l, GetUnitFlyHeight(u))
            call DestroyEffect(AddSpecialEffectTarget("Objects\\Spawnmodels\\Human\\HumanBlood\\BloodElfSpellThiefBlood.mdl", u, "chest"))
