[Trigger] Learn Spells in Spell Book

[TheFireMage]

Hello everyone, thank you for your time reading this thread.
I made a spell book ability with 3 spells for all levels. However, players can only have 1 ability at level 1 and 2 abilities at level 2 and so on. But, spells contained will not be in order, rather, players can choose the spell they want to have in current ability until ability is at max level. And I discovered something. If the hero spends 2 skill points on the ability then he won't be able to learn 2 spells because the triggers made him learn one at a time. Also, Learn Dispel Magic does not work

Ability

Learn Entangling Roots/Learn Dispel Magic/Learn Roar = Ability based on Channel for unhiding spells when unit casts them
Dummy Ability 1/2/3 = Ability based on Channel for detecting
Learn Spell Book = A spell book ability that contains spells that unlock spells in Spell Book (Hero,Real)
Spell Book (Hero,Real) = a spell book ability that contains the spells for casting​

To make a spellbook learn a new ability, add a disabled spellbook with that ability to the hero. The orderstring of the spellbook must match the original spellbook of the hero. Its as simple as that.

There are than 1 spell so it must be disabling an ability within a spell book rather than the spell book
In the triggers I mentioned, the player can prioritize the spells they want to learn like learning hero ability

The method I discribed is not limited at all. You can add and remove any ability you want to the spellbook.

Simply by making a bunch of spell books with the same order id with dummy being the empty one?

Well, yes.

It works like this:
You have an enabled spellbook A for tooltip and icon that players can open.
You have a spellbook B that has the same order ID as spellbook A which has an ability C you want to add to spellbook A.
You add spellbook B to the unit.
You disable spellbook B.

You can add as many abilities to spellbook A as you want this way; you are only limited by the maximum number of displayed icons inside that spellbook.
