Mathias,

Is there a tag that exists in the datafiles that I could put on certain Psychic Powers that would tell Hero Lab "This is not an advance, do not show this in the list of advances"?

I'm asking because I don't want NPC psychic powers showing up, a Space Marine wouldn't be able to access hive mind psychic powers, even as an advance. And Space Marines shouldn't have access to powers that belong to the ruinous powers either. I'd like to restrict these so they don't show up on the list of powers a space marine can take as a player character.

The candidate field that controls this is field[advDynamic].text. So, you can define your own tag or tags that excludes them. First, look throgh advancement.core and thing_advances.dat to see how field[advdynamic].text is currently being assembled, and then you can start modifying it.
