[Trigger] Ability level not being set when using a CR based ability?

[The10th-X]

It's me again, with another problem.

So i've got this spell that, once used, gives different bonuses, it has three forms and you can cycle between them

-Form 1 Gives X Bonuses
-Form 2 Gives Y Bonuses
-Form 3 Gives Z Bonuses

Y'see the problem is there is also an ability on this hero that makes use of chemical rage, so the unit changes, i've got it to preserve the units MS when transforming (MS is one of the form bonuses/deductions), but the skill book (That has all the other bonuses) doesn't level up (There's three skill books, with level 1-5, level 1 has no bonuses in it and that's the base, both the main unit and the transformed unit have these as default abilities)

So, when transformed, even with this trigger below, it leaves the skill book at level 1 and i have no idea why.

Sorry for it being messy/hard to read it's one of my older things i've just started editing

I'm sure this is gonna be a case of me being stupid, but i don't know everything about transformation abilties since i don't use them much, if there's an easier way to do this just say

Here's the trigger for the actual ability activation as well since it'll probably make more sense with this

Spellbooks and their content are removed on morphing.
One can make abilities permanent so they are not removed when morphing.
For spellbooks you need to make the spellbook and all abilities inside the book permanent.
One can skip the book ability, if all forms have the spellbook ability on default.

native UnitMakeAbilityPermanent     takes unit whichUnit, boolean permanent, integer abilityId returns boolean

• Custom script: call UnitMakeAbilityPermanent(udg_Issei, true, 'AHab')

If IsseiBishop, IsseiRook and IsseiKnight are the content of the book.

• Custom script: call UnitMakeAbilityPermanent(udg_Issei, true, udg_IsseiKnight)
• Custom script: call UnitMakeAbilityPermanent(udg_Issei, true, udg_IsseiBishop)
• Custom script: call UnitMakeAbilityPermanent(udg_Issei, true, udg_IsseiRook)

You need to use that permanent setting only once, as soon an unit has the ability. It keeps as long the ability is not lost for that specific unit.

One could also do the whole thing with techs I guess, depends how many forms you wana use and what the bonuses of this 3 types are, But well you might dislike stacking up object Editor data.

I see, i decided to not use this ability because it'll probable be buggy as hell but i'll keep this in mind for the future, thans
