SpellBook - Setting Level of Hidden Auras

[Gost]

EDIT: Post Cleanup.

:Mathmatical problems have be resolved, but i still need to know why this code crashes wc3

• Unit - Add Spells - Track to (Casting unit)

Its adding the spellbook ability to a hero (the spellbook ability is a unit ability, 2 abilities in it, max/min spells set to 2).

• Track Cast
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Track
  • Actions
    • Unit - Order (Casting unit) to Attack (Target unit of ability being cast)
    • Set L = (Position of (Casting unit))
    • Unit - Create 1 Dummy Unit for (Owner of (Casting unit)) at L facing Default building facing degrees
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_L)
    • Unit - Add a 2.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
    • Unit - Add Track Dummy to (Last created unit)
    • Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Undead Necromancer - Unholy Frenzy (Casting unit)

the problem may not be in that line.

guess 1: where do you remove the added abilities? i think the problem lies there.
guess 2: unit should not have more than one spellbook. maybe you did that.

It is definently that line, i disabled every trigger, and when i casted the spell it didnt crash, then i disabled every trigger but one that only has that line:

• Track Cast
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Track
  • Actions
    • Unit - Add Spells - Track to (Casting unit)

And it crashed when i casted the spell. So... anyone know whatsup? Im gonna pm diablo-dk aswell though, he knows alot about spell books im pretty sure.

If i understand this right, then the game crashes whenever the unit gains the "Spells - Track"?
If so, then i guess the problem lies in the ability, though i have no idea what it is.

Yes, that is when it crashes. Heres a screeny of the spells object edito info. The spell is the spellbook ability, all values that i changed are shown in the screenshot (pink, naturaly). http://s218.photobucket.com/albums/cc282/Gost_Wc3/?action=view&current=Capture.jpg

The spellbook ability is still an item ability. Try to uncheck that flag and see what happens.

I already tried that, i changed it to unit and then hero, no change on the crash ".

 

[Eleandor]

try to add the ability to a unit in the object editor and see if it crashes... if it still does, try removing one of the abilities inside the book... maybe they're the problem.

*Running a multitude of tests atm - Restults Soon*
And it hit me like a sack o' potatoes, i had the value 'Shared Cooldown' set to false, and there were no abilities in the spell book with cooldowns, i guess that causes it to crash because i set it to true and it works perfectly now, thankyou all for your help! (Maybe this could be added to your guide diablo-dk, this was a bitch to fix >.>.)
