I am in WAY over my head.

So a while ago i started working on an RPG. The concept here is that the player can "purchase" abilities aslong as he meets the attribute requirements.

I've got that completely working but the problem presents itself in unlearning.
I want the player to be able to unlearn his abilities as many times as he wants ( for a price ofcourse ).
I know the first steps, powerup dummy item called Unlearn Ability, then start triggering from then on out.

But frankly, i can't seem to figure out how to do it. My first though was to have each ability set to a variable but that didn't seem to work all that well.
If anyone knows a ways to do this, i'll be really grateful. This thing is kinda the map's selling point per say

Here's a few things you might wanna know:
-The Map is singleplayer, so no worries about MUI.
-There's no class restrictions ( only stat restrictions, but like i said, i already have buyable spells working )
-Player can have upto 5 spells.

Alright, hope i didn't forget anything and thanks to anyone who's willing to help.

can't understand it...
but do you mean like, when you will buy an ability on a shop, it will be added on the unlearned spells? which you'll need to level up to learn it?

I'm not sure, but cant you give hero a unlearn book via trigger and order him to click it?

Just to clarify things...
He wanted to make some ITEM RECIPE-like system
It's like meeting the requirements and get the ability.
Use Spellbook on it.

It's basically like this, you purchase a spell and it's then added to ur active spells ( not the unlearned ones ) through triggers, so they also have to be unlearned with triggers. You don't level these spells up or anything, you just unlearn ur current one and learn a more powerful spell when you meet it's stat requirement.

Hope that made some sense x)

Can't you just use the RemoveAbility function when you want to unlearn an ability? Else you can also "hide" an ability. I can't remember the function and since I dont have wc3 on this computer I can't find it either. But I'm pretty sure its under -Game or -Player (in gui).

Player - Enable/Disable an ability for player

But i need it to check wich abilities the player picked don't i?

 

[Bannar]

Yes you have to. Helpfull here should be ability variables.

When player wish to unlearn spell he clicks a given buttom for this special ability right?
via condition what search which ability is wished to be unlearned set ability variable.
Set your_abilityVariable = given_ability
Player - Disable ability your_abilityVariable for player your_player

But the player can have more then 1 ability, how do i check wich ability is ability1, ability2 etc..
