more than 5 skills

I'm making a rpg-map and want my heroes to have 8 skills, but I can only add 5 skills.
So I want you to ask, if there is any way to add more than 5 without writing a new "red cross"-ability?

are you sure, cause i've seen a rpg where your hero could choose from 11 skills and the "red cross"-abil was the original one, cause it was translated

I think grim once found a way to enable 8 ability slots by somehow hiding some unneeded buttons. I don't remember how exactly though.

using these files:

if you import them into your map(don't know the exact path right now) it will turn the hold-position button into a skillmenu, and the patrol-button into a "face towards point" button. you'd have to trigger those then, though.

How about using the item skill "Spell Book"? But heroes may not able to learn spell which in the spell book. Maybe you can use trigger to do this.

jeah, but this means to trigger your own hero-lerans-skill-system (pretty much work, caus I need every skill twice (learning-form and normal-form))

If you want them to be in skill menu, there are still work arounds, albeit hard ones.

You can have to have a two pages skill menu!

There are problems with the method in the map I am attaching, like cooldowns resetting and something about morphing skills. I think those problems can be fixed completely, it is in my huge todo list to update this map with a fixed method...
