Stacking Spells?

Stacking Spells?

I am trying to make a battleships like map, and because of the nature of the game (don't ask) it requires a seperate storage for the weapons (items that add the base ability "phoenix fire" - just each ability is different depending on the weapon) and I do this by adding/removing the ability (with triggers) "phoenix fire" to the ship and removing it when they pick it up/remove it, instead of having the ability on the item

My Problem:

I want to make the phoenix fire (etc) stack for the SAME ability. Eg. I can't make 2 or more of the same phoenix fire abilities (e.g. 2 Basic Cannons) stack using triggers. The same problem happens for the items that I have to use the trigger - Unit: Add ability. (just cannon - phoenix fire, and crew - life regen, and plating - magic reduction) - I avoided this with sail - speed (trigger add unit speed) and hull - life (WEU - advanced trigger add unit life)

I notice that if you leave the ability on the item, and keep it in your main inventory screen, then they all stack. I want that effect - maybe you can do it with game caches or what ever. Please help!

That's easy... Just have more than one custom phoenix fire and keep adding another such custom ability. You need some variables to remmeber how many phoenix fires you have, and depending on that you remove or add a certain one...
