increasing the number of slots

[Null]

Hi! Im making a card game which uses mercenaries as cards. Apparently i cannot have more than 12 mercenaries in a building even if all 12 are in fact the same unit type. How do i fool the game into thinking there are more than 12 slots so i can get a huge amount of cards in my building???

I think making dummy abilities like "next page" "previous page" would work, then when the player uses these "abilities" you replace the building with an another one that looks the same but contains different units

Two ideas come to mind:

1) Use a Page system. You can make units available/unavailable to train (I assume buy/sell as well) using triggers. So the idea is simple, add abilities to your building to toggle between the pages (next page, previous page), and make only the current page's units available to you. Just remember that there's a "limit" to how many units you can train/sell. Luckily, this can be bypassed using the Shift key and rawcodes:

2) Custom UI frames. The future is now!
