hi, when u make a spell that's originally 1 level & make it into 2+ levels, i notice you have to write all your own data fields. i copy the fields ex: (something,something1)
i change the #1 to 2, 3, etc. but it shows up in the map as 0

for example, make canabalize into a hero ability with 3 levels. another spell i made was based on cleaving attack, from 1 to 3 levels also...i also added the warstomp affect (cracked earth) to it to know when your cleaving attack was successful. perhaps another affect would be more appropriate, but i'm not an expert on adding affects, buffs.

Can you clarify this? I don't fully understand. To change a normal ability to a hero ablity, there's a data field that has Ability - Is a hero ability. Check the box. If you've already done that, there should be a field called levels. Change that to whatever you want.

(he mean the data field of the spell, like <Ao,DMG4> that will show in the description the damage of the field 4)

yes i guess is a bug... after level 3 allways will say "0%" or "0 points" you have to manualy put the value like "20" or what ever u want (i guess) it may be boring.... but will fix your problem
