Abilities in command card from item

[keychup]

Effect: A hero can obtain abilities by buying these tomes called "Books of Arts". When it picks up the tome it is put into their inventory in off mode. When it is turned on the ability will be available for use in the command card. You can upgrade the ability up to the 5 levels by talking to the "Book Keeper". The tome in question here is the "Book of Fire Arts I" which allows you to use the spell "Fireball", a basic spell that has a similar effect to "Firebolt" except it also has a 15% chance to burn the target.

Problem: I have decided to add an item called "Master's Medallion", which is based off "Engineering Upgrade" and turns the "Fireball" into a more powerful version called "Master Fireball". The problem here is when I turn the ability off, then on again while holding the "Master's Medallion", the "Master's Fireball" ability is not being set to the current research level of "Fireball Upgrade".

Components:
Abilities: Fireball, Fireball (Upgrade)
Items: Book of Fire Arts I (Off), Book of Fire Arts I (On), Master's Medallion
Upgrades: Fireball Upgrade

umm, im not 100% on how engineering upgrade works but i would recomend using triggers to do the effect instead, eg. unit aquires item, if has ability then remove it and add new ability, and if unit uses book thing item and has amulet in inventory then add new ability, and if unit loses amulet and unit has ability then remove it and add weaker one
