Well ewery bodey knows that it wuld bee great with more than 6 invent slots and moore room for the spells and lvl abilitys.... (on topiq)
i got some problems with the spellbook...

1.I´w been wondering for days and weeks why some spells just dont want to bee seen in the spellbook.

2. And if they does (most common with spells thats "maded" into hero spells frome like a neutral or creep spell) some just wont have the proper icon and description...

3. Is there a way to make so the mana used is taken frome the hero instead of from the spellbook.

Thanks in advance!

Spellbook Issues

There are many issues to consider when editing spellbooks:
why some spells just dont want to bee seen
Spellbooks that are items posess an ability called Spell Book. Edit several data fields in that ability.

Data - Minimum Spells
Data - Maximum Spells

Those fields should have the same value to ensure that the same spells are always displayed. If you want a unit to have more than one spellbook you must change Data - Base Order ID to something else for one of the books.

If two abilities have the same Art- Button Position they may conflict.

Hero abilities may not be added to spellbooks. You must copy hero abilities and then "paste as custom ability" then edit the fields: Stats - Hero Ability and Stats - Item Ability.

a way to make so the mana used is taken frome the hero instead of from the spellbook

To accomplish this you must give the unit or hero itself the Spell Book ability.

Also you might want to try out our supersecretsearchsystem to find many topics relating to spellbooks.
