I made the below spell. It is a spell that moves the unit instantly to the back of targeted enemy unit and do damage. I base this spell on chain lightning. The problem now is weird.

Problem:
Cooldown is not triggered (I set the cooldown to 10seconds).
Mana is used << Note, Mana is used.

If mana is used, that means it has already started the effect of the spell. But why didn't it trigger the cooldown?

Here is my code. I am very sure i have the cooldown set to 10. Because if i remove the move unit instantly. It will trigger the cooldown. Is there anyway to solve this?
