there is no real limit to the number of abilities that an item or unit can have, but, you will need to know the raw name of the abilities (i think ctrl+d displays all values as raw data) eg. locust = Aloc, invulnerability= Avul, storm hammers= Asth. when you chose to display values as raw data all the names of units in the object editor will be replaced by their ID (raw data value thing) hold shift and double click on the abilities field and type in the ID's with a comma (,) separating them, eg Avul,Aloc,Asth , their should be NO spaces between them, just a comma, and yes these are newbie terms, because it explains it better
I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
