Need Help :C

hello...
im working on a spell for my map and i run into some sort of problems along the way and im hoping someone would help...the spell im working at is a passive spell that (supposedly) goes like multicast in dota (i know its probably been ask a lot of times)
and for those who dont play dota-Multicast is a passive spell that gives your hero a certain chance to cast a spell again

heres my trigger

test

• Testing Purposes
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes casting an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Casting unit)) Equal to Dummy Unit
  • Actions
    • Game - Display to (All players) for 12.00 seconds the text: (String((Level of (Ability being cast) for (Casting unit))))

little bit of explanation about my spell:
if Bash is learned the and the unit cast a spell it should give a "x" chance to cast it again
level 1 - x chance to cast a spell again
level 2 - x chance to cast a spell once. x chance to cast a spell 2 times
level 3 - x chance to cast a spell once. x chance to cast a spell 2 times. x chance to cast a spell 3 times


so heres the problems:
1.it works but win no interval between the spells example: i cast thunder clap and multicast gives a dummy unit chance to cast it again for 3 more times after i cast...the dummy cast thunder clap 3 times at one instance without interval...how do i solve this?

2.whenever i cast a point targeted spell (shockwave for expample) the dummy cast it towards the center of the map (not sure on this one but as long as i doesn't cast it towards the direction the player intented its no go)

ive attach my test map so that anyone could test it and see if there are more errors im not aware yet

1.) You need another timer for every interval. Maybe like a 1 shot timer and another trigger catches the expire, and continues with the indexed variables. The last trigger in the chain of timers would have to be the one to de-index a cast of Multicast.

2.) You set your point to the position of your caster, so he's always casting point spells on himself:

• Set M_C_Point[M_C_Index] = (Position of M_C_Caster[M_C_Index])

I think you mean this:

• Set M_C_Point[M_C_Index] = (Target point of ability being cast)

how do i make one?

• Set M_C_Point[M_C_Index] = (Position of M_C_Caster[M_C_Index])

i really intended it to be like this to ensure that there will be no conflict in the casting range

bump?

or make three different thunder claps that has casting time... so like 1 is instant cast, another has 0.5 second cast and third has 1 second cast...
