First, please forgive the necro thread but this was the exact issue I was dealing with recently and didn't want to make a new thread for my findings.
I was having a hell of a time figuring out why poison (the spell) was not working as it should. I was experiencing the exact issues that Van Glan Bloom was reporting-- the target would receive the poison spell, it would then "tick" and the poison would be gone from the target without them having taken any damage.
After a bunch of testing (tested different spawn types to see if there was a consistent theme as far as what would get damaged by poison and what wouldn't), every target would get poisoned, and upon the first tick of damage, it would say "*<mob name> is (null)*" and the poison would wear off. Every now and then the target would receive a huge amount of damage (Largest I saw was well over 60,000), the poison would wear off, and the target would still be alive and at full health even though I just saw them take damage of the aforementioned value. All of this was happening with no errors showing up on the console, mind you.
Then I came upon this thread. I saw Criminal's post about the Layer= information, compared what was in my version of the sphere_spells.scp and found that that line was NOT missing from my script.
I was just about to post seeking help when I decided to compare the two poison scripts line by line.
