Adding/Removing abilities? + other questions

[black.sheep]

Okay, is there anyway to add/remove abilities from a unit, other than adding all of them to one unit, then disabling/enabling them?
Also, what is the most efficent way of changing a units model?
And how do you use the marine with shield model?

Oh, and how do work items? Is there a way to make it work like the wc3 item system?

- to add/remove abilties you have to do a combination of giving the unit the ability, and putting it on the command card , likewise if you remove an ability, also remove it from the command card.

-for actors you just gotta keep messing around , fastest way imo is to just deplicated the actor (then you would get some sort of marine copy" etc) , then rename it if you wish and adjust the events/conditions on the actor tab if you are doing any morphing .

-find what actor is the marine shield and use that one instead of the standard marine actor.

-yes you can make it work like the war3 item system, however to do this is quite a long explaining progress .. you can find everything you wanna know about it here http://www.sc2mapster.com , this for me is the best site so far for sc2 editor help that i have found.
