Updated post with the new MUI version!! Check it out!! Explaination: This is a unique dialog based leveling system. There is currently no other like this that I know of and I'm very proud that I invented it. How it works:
Features: -Custom hero ability leveling -Ability to repick your skills -Limits the number of different abilities learnable -Uses variables to calculate available skill points -Button triggered skill selection (Just like normal selection for preset heros) -Multi-User friendly -Now displays current ability levels Drawbacks: -Only works with 1 Hero per player. Future Planned Features: -Variable triggered skill points instead of using food - Already Implemented -MUI version - Already Implemented -Other ideas..? Please check it out and leave feedback!! MUI version now uploaded, supports up to 8 players (can be adjusted for more if needed)! |

Made 2 systems similar to this myself. The first one simply increased an integer variable for the player, which increases the effects of the spells, the point of this system being to reduce the loading time by making level 100 abilities level 1 instead. Also, allows infinite levels for abilities. The second one I made (more recent), allows you to add points to attributes/abilities by pressing F8 (idle worker) whenever you level. I suggest you use my idle worker button idea, which frees up the food cap slot and provides a hotkey, which is definitely better than having to type -ability all the time. |

Actually I've been thinking about just giving them an ability that opens up the dialog.. it would better resemble the normal skill level system that blizzard uses which was the point behind this system.. To allow custom heros a system of ability leveling that limits the number of available abilities and levels them up like the blizzard hardcoded normal hero skill system. Here is the New and Improved MUI version!! |

A valiant thingy, but I would ask for an option: let ability dialog show ability's current level. Something like this: Blizzard [2] Just in case =) |

If you download the new V1.1 it does say the current level of the ability.. or at least it should if its working right. :P Already way ahead of you !! |

Well, brilliant, now you can read my thoughts :) |

Well I think I may be able to make it so it shows the next level of the ability and even remove the ability from the selections if its maxed but I will put that on hold for a bit :P |
