I'm stuck on a map I'm currently working on, my first map ever infact, I got regular mines to blow up correctly, the simple part, but then I tried adding buffs and spells and the like to make them slow/frost nova/poison or anything with that category. The mines fail to activate such reduction that I want, only doing the damage.

Secondly, with multiple mine skills, all mines placed always follow an order, disregarding the Hotkey placed, until the cooldown on the skill is in place.
ex. all mines have 10s cd.
mine B is ordered to place, mine A places instead, mine A in cooldown.
mine B is ordered to place, mine B places, mine B in cooldown.
mine D is ordered to place, mine C places, mine C in cooldown.
mine D is ordered to place, mine A places, out of cooldown.
Problem makes mine D unsettable.

If you would like, I could send my map and see whats wrong with it, keeping in mind this is my first map ever.
Thanks in advance.

Are you using all base mine abilities, or triggering them?
