Respawning trigger question...

[DM Cross]

I have a trigger for my map to spawn trolls near the gold mine...I have two regions, Trollspawn1a and 1b...the trigger is as follows:
Event:
A unit enters 1b
Conditions
Actions
Turn off (this trigger)
Create Trolls
now, here's what i want to know...I have the following actions added on, to try:
Wait 45.00 seconds
Turn on (this trigger)
My question is, is the trigger actually turned off for 45 seconds? or have my units just been lucky so far? it's hard to tell when i test it, so i figured maybe someone would know if this is actually working, or i've jsut been lucky so far...

hmm....

I really dont understand...

When a unit enters a region you what to have some units spawned in the region efter a period of 45 sec right?

No, no, no, that's not how it works, lol...But it's easy to get confused...See, the trigger that is typically used to spawn units is
turn off this trigger
Create x amount of y unist in z area for q player
now, the trigger is turned off after the creation, that way you don't get the units everytime a unit passes the triggering region...if that happened, you'd wind up with an army of trolls or something because your five footmen, let's say, ran across the triggering region...however, the way action was SUPPOSED to allow the trigger to remain off for 45 second...this way, it won't work for 45 seconds after the first time...then, after that time, it turns back on and you can set it off...it's a big circle, basically

It should turn off, yes...
