Cannot get timer events to work

[Mr.Cheese]

Is this a bug or, more likely, am I just being noob?

I am trying to set up a trigger where when the repeating timer expires, a unit is spawned and attacks.

The Event of 'Elapsed Time' works fine. My zergling is spawned and he scampers about the map.

However, the other Timer events do not work. Timer X expires and nothing happens. I thought maybe I was doing the variable wrong so I tried 'Last Created Timer' and that doesn't work either.

Have you guys been able to get the timer to work as an event?

Have you initialized the Timer you used? If yes I can't see anything wrong that may occur.

Yup. I even have it working fine in the little window. But I am wondering if anyone else is having a problem with the Timer event (which would point to a bug).

I just got it to work, "tick tock" is displayed every 5 seconds. See the attached images.

I think that there are problems using local timer variables at the moment.
If you used one, then switch to a global timer and try again.
