In example if you have Ability A and Ability B. Where A is bootstrapped and ability B is the alternate racial trait. You would have a script on B that assigns Helper.SpcReplace in First/500. This disables and gray's out A and the only thing you should then see on the Specials tab and in print will be B.
ShadowChemosh:

I am trying replace existing Background abilities with new ones from the module Baldur's Gate: Descent into Avernus.
For example, the ability for the Acolyte background has the tag bAcolShelt. I want to replace that ability with an ability who's tag is ab5CDiVbgAcolyte.

I'd like to create a script with an adjustment if possible, but I can make copies of each exisiting background if necessary. Any ideas/suggestions?

I caught this posting and am trying to see if this would work for me.
