Few questions about leveling and abilities

I'm looking to make a custom rule in game limiting hero levels via Trigger. I couldn't find a way to set the max level; however I did find this one. "SuspendHeroXP" It should work fine, but has anyone tested to see if it continues to split the experience to that hero?

Also, in doing this, I need to remove an ability completely, basically not be able to choose it. I couldn't find a method to do so, and I'm not sure if it exists. Then if possible, also need to change a max ability level from 4 to 3.

None if this seems possible from what I can see, but I'm hoping to be wrong.

Well you can do this: When a hero levels up to your selected level use Hero - Disable experience gain for (Triggering unit) that sloves the porblem about exp gain.

I said that I already solved that problem "SuspendHeroXP"

I don't use GUI, but thanks.

Edit: I did come up with a way to stop one ability from being learned by using some techtree requirements if no other way is possible. Same with the 4th level of others, but I just want to make sure it is the best method.

Edit edit: Well, throw out the techtree idea, it affects the whole spell not just level 4.

You're going to want to fool around with Engineering Upgrade.

Erm, remove the ability from the unit? That does what you say you want there.

One think you could do is not disable the ability, but detect when a hero learns an ability and if it 'learns it to' level 4, you set it down a level and return a skillpoint. Not the prettiest solution, but it works.

I was worried that I might have to do it that way, but ok.


You're saying that call UnitRemoveAbility will remove the skill completely? I need to remove it from being learned.

If you want to remove it from that whole player, you could just use Player - Disable <Ability>

Well no matter, I solved the problems mostly, but one more thing. SuspendHeroXP still seems to be splitting it up. Any ideas of how to stop exp split on certain heros?

For the ability issue, have 2 abilities, one which is going to be learned and the other is a unit ability, when the skill is learned you set the ability up a level. Then when you want to stop the ability being learned, remove the dummy ability which is just for display and it cant go up anymore.

That's a good idea, but it requires me to make a double of every spell which I just want to avoid. I just went with a method of setting the level back to 3 and adding the skill point back with a message.

Still need to solve the experience problem. Looks like I may just have to add HandicapXP to player everytime a hero levels to 10.
