[Solved] Bear form interferes with spellbook

Im trying to use the Bear Form ability to swap between range and melee on a unit but when I cast the morph spell all my spells in my spellbook are removed. Why?

 

[Maker]

call UnitMakeAbilityPermanent(unit, boolean, abilityID) is what you need to use with all abilities.

How do you mean, do I trigger that whenever the unit casts an ability?
Also, will the spells retain their cooldown?

 

[Chaosy]

Each time its cast I belive. I can help you tomarrow with skype if you want

 

[Maker]

You only need to use the function once for each ability.

I figured it should only be set once I suppose. However Maker it works but I didn't quite get it with that command you wrote "call UnitMakeAbilityPermanent(unit, boolean, abilityID)" I know I'm supposed to change those names with which unit (I don't know how to get this information) and boolean (I have no idea what to put here) and the id of the spell (I know how to do this at least). I used the function implemented to do this through UMSWE GUI but what I've heard it's not too good to use them? Anyway thanks.

Unit depends on the event, boolean should be true and ability id just go into the object editor and prsss ctrl d

nd sorry about the mistake above, I thought that when you morphed you created a new unit but seems like it couns as replacement

Here's a test map of it, and yes it retains cooldown.

 

[Sunchips]

I see but, why have you set it to make the spell permanent each time you cast it? It seems to work fine if I just set it to do it once. Am I wrong?

 

[Maker]

You don't have to set it every time, only once.

 

[Sunchips]

Thanks this really put me on track again

I can't refer to the correct event, that's why I put it there.
