No Cooldown? WHAT?

I have a custom spell based off Polymorph for a Cat & Mouse map (real original, eh?). I set the cooldown to 9 seconds, but whenever I use it, it doesn't have a cool down! Everything else works fine--it casts upon a structure that is a Wall (Chewable), removes it, shows a little special effect, then creates a Chewable wall in the same place a few seconds afterwards. Is my trigger affecting the cooldown?

Why you are using orders instead of ability events?

First thing that came to mind to do. ^^;; Does it really matter, though?

With that triggerm even if it worked, I would be able to cast polymorph on 13 units without caring about mana/cooldown

Gah! Are you going to tell me how to fix the cooldown problem or not? =\

A few ideas:

1) Use ability being cast. It's much more stable in cases like this.
2) What did you base it off of? I could try to replicate it if I knew this.

Dont mean to be impaitent, but...I JUST SAID I USED POLYMORPH! >_> This problem is annoying me...and why should the cool down not working have anything to do with the trigger? But I'll try it anyway.

EDIT: Oh, it worked! Thanks guys! I dont understand why that would affect cool down though...oh well.

i think its something to do with polymorph as a spell, i've always had trouble with it, i suggest changing to a diff ability, such as Storm Bolt.

No, it was because the Order event, when the spell for example has 900 range and the unit is standing 1300 away from the target the order is when you order the unit to cast the spell, when you use starts the effect it's triggered when the mana is removed and the cooldown is activated!

Of course it didn't work, you removed the target when your unit was given an order, so when the unit tried to execute the order, the target wasn't there. The ability wasn't even cast, and there was no cooldown.

Using "unit starts the effect of an ability" solves everything.

Sorry about not noticing the polymorph thing, I was a little overtired last night :<. I believe, like Anitar, that using ability events would solve this. If you remove the target without waiting, the unit will never cast the ability. Also, you could cast this anywhere-- even out of the range!

I would use "Unit - Finishes Casting an ability" and the Event Responces to match.

Starts the effect of an ability please, finishes casting an ability doesn't have responses different than triggering unit.

I should read replies before replying, deleted my content.
