Every value in the index must be reshuffled back into the index.
Let me shamble together something here real quick...
oh and something I noticed:

Oh, and if the "Math - Modulo" bit is too difficult just add another variable and subtract from it much like T_Duration, and then reset it back to the Config Tick once you deal the area damage.
