Hero Button Positioning

[gudson]

GUI trigger below;
1st Problem: after this trigger executes, if i have more then one hero, it moves the hero icon to the bottom and i would like it to stay at the top.
FIXED - 2nd Problem: When the unit is replaced the all of his abilities are reset and none of the skill points are spent in the code I'm using an integer variable with 5 arrays (including 0) and setting the variable to the level of the abilities then replacing the unit then setting the levels of the abilities to the variable but the abilities still reset.

Hm... I don't know why it'd move the icon to the bottom, I'm not sure how to fix it either... = /

[Rich Kane]

it changes your hero into a new one, if u kept the 'psy manipulator' as a unit on the map and use a trigger to hide it at the start of the game, you can change that trigger to hide your hero and unhide the psy change unit owner move it ect, then when its over hide the psy set its level to what ever ect, and unhide the origional hero. (could work)

if that does not work or you dont want to change the way your triggers work you could hide and unhide in 0.01 seconds all the rest of the heroes so that hes at the top.

[gudson]

Hiding heros doesnt remove thier button at the top left of the screen, am i doing something wrong?

[Rich Kane]

hmm and u want both hero icons at the top when they are in controle,

the item/skill that changes your hero. is there no chance of changing that into a metamorphosis skill to change your hero?

or instead of replacing the unit - add a spell equal to metamorphasis and activate it.

then you would have to rework the set level of skill/remaining skill points.

[Arabidnun]

May I see the map to fix the triggers?

[Rich Kane]

i think the easiest way would be metamorphasis and add a skill based on engernearing upgrade to change all the skills around.

EDIT:Sorry I had to edit so many times, was thinking of stuff while I was making another trigger.

I know this map does not have memory leaks, as I forgot to add the custom scipt, but you can add it yourself. If u need further explanation on this trigger, don't hesiatate to ask.

I fixed the skill levels, thx to Arabidnun, but the button position of the hero is still a problem, i've tried hide/unhide the other heros and changing the owner then reverting it but the buttons dont move.
