I can't seem to find a solution to my problem... Do you know why my heroes abilities is in strange order, when playing? I have made a custom hero, but when playing the game, the different abilities are set to strange positions (ability 1 is in spot 1, abi. 2 is in spot 3, abi. 3 is in spot 4 (next line... this one is not avaliable to use, since there's only 3 spots), abi. 4 is in spot 4 (same problem as with abi. 3)

Do you play MP?

Nope, I prefer to play SP

I'm pretty sure that's no way to fix the abilities in odd spots problem. I play MP a lot and in most "Use map settings" games there are custom heroes and if the creator wasn't smart then certain abilites are unusable. One way to use the abilities you want is to only select between two abilities until you can pick the ultimate, then those three will be usable, unless/until you decide to pick that lsat regular ability.

You might try checking an official or dedicated WC3 forum, but I wouldn't get your hopes up.

If I post my map here, would someone please take a look at, what I'm doing wrong here?

- I have a quest (main quest), which is not won (I have not set anywhere, that this quest actually can be completed)... This quest is the first thing being initialized... but whenever I start, I get the "You've won" msg
- I have set a trigger, where when entering a region, your hero morphes into some other hero (hides the hero, changes owner, unhides other hero, changes owner to play 1 (of other hero))... The trigger works fine, since the animation is shown, when triggering the trigger, but it only morphs into it self..?
- I have another trigger (simple move trigger), but as I triggered the trigger, Warcraft froze!?!
- I can't seem to find a way, to avoid getting 5 peasants + castle when starting the game. When I choose to not "create starting units" or "Give hero'es scroll of portal", I loose when I start the game...
