tasker help please - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

ARGH purpose of the profile its a kid time waster timer.
start when a programs in a list are started.
count down the time with flashed every x minutes
warn at completion
do something disruptive alert or alarm or close the app or lock the screen or just bounce to home
I am having trouble with flow control with the subroutines.
the closes top subroutine starts before the countdown is complete. or rater anything disruptive I put in there fires to early. if I just put a flash in it flashes aththe right time. butif I screen lock or notify or power off or go to home screen or popup. they all fire immedialtey.
i thought it might be the way the countdown was using wait but it doens seem to be the problem.
i had a simpler countdown that woud simply wait and then go to the top. if not enough time had passed. i thought the problem might be the wait so I wrote it like this.
i also managed the priroties of hte sub tasks higher thant eh main task.
well I kept going on the rest of the 'stuff' i hae a settings screen to choose the time allowed. and I would like ot have check boxes for the different kind of disruptions. but that wont be needed if all I can do is flash
