Howdy:

Would someone be able to post how the icon numbering works for placement of hero skill icons?

I used position 0,0 to get an icon in the bottom corner, but then when i use 0,1, its gets moved up one and over one which seems wrong.

Is the origin for the picking the hero skiill to upgrade different from what it is in the general window or something?

Firsty...no the orrgin for picking abilites and where they sit are the same.

It works like this...lets say u place the icon learn 'storm bolt' in the position 0,0, so it sits in the top left corner. Then beside that there might be the icon 'thunder clap' which is at 0,1. and below thunder bolt the square is at 1,0. Get it...?

The main area is exactly the same. I think the icon for move is located at 0,0. So once uv learnt thunder bolt....the icon will should appear at 2,0. and thunder clap will show up at 2,1.

Usually hero abilities that have been learnt show up on the bottom row which has the position 2. Hope u understand...and if u could give some rep i would be ever grateful.

These are the ability spots, written as [X,Y].
Code:
[0,0][1,0][2,0][3,0]
[0,1][1,1][2,1][3,1]
[0,2][1,2][2,2][3,2]



...and that's all there is to it. Buttons like move, stop and hold position have higher priority than abilities, though, so using slots normally taken by those make the ability go to some other slot that isn't taken.
