Spellbook/Hero ability ID's clashing?

I coulda sworn that spellbook spells can have the same orderId as spells outside of them, but apparently not. I had 2 spells based from Fan of Knives, one in the spellbook and one out. For some reason, casting one would cast the other, even though they aren't in the same spellbook. Am I doing something wrong or have I been mis-interpreting spellbooks this whole time?

You are right wulfy. I think it is used to store all kinds of weird aura and abilities through JASS.

This is a very good tutorial for spellbooks. Also check Vexorians spellbook testmap or my spellbook system: http://www.wc3campaigns.net/showthre...748#post952748

Nah, I know how to use spellbook, I've used them before. I'm just wondering if orderID's in the spellbook clash the ones outside of it.

They can be used for that, but that isn't their primary function.

All order ID's on the same unit clash, when you open a Spellbook and give a unit the order to use Fan of Knives, all it does is tell the unit to use Fan of Knives, if it has 2 FoK abilities then it'll use both of them, because they're both triggered by that order, it doesn't matter where they are.

Shit. Oh well, nothing I can't fix easily. I was using the second FoK as a no-target instant cast dummy, so I'll just swap some abilities in and out. Thanks.
