[provocating]

I am getting stuck on the very end of this task. Basically an ooze spawns from a different script, grows in size and then is supposed to despawn. After the despawn I need to manually update the task. If you look in my script I also have a death event. If I manually kill the ooze then the task does indeed update. How come I cannot update from the timer event ? Everything works except the task never updates unless I kill the ooze myself.
