The Moclan writeup features the following Talent:

"TRADITIONAL -- You are well versed in Moclan traditions as the expected procedure for performing Tasks. You gain "Moclan Traditions" as bonus Focus. When you attempt a Task where that focus is applicable, you can use your Conn Discipline to determine if a roll scores two successes rather than the Discipline used to set the Target Number of the Task."

This gives a bonus Focus, for 7 instead of 6, and I don't know how to implement that. Help!
This should work (changing the spcHuman to whatever the species id is for Moclan)
Code:
  <thing id="talMocTrad" name="Traditional" description="You are well versed in Moclan traditions as the expected procedure for performing Tasks. You gain &quot;Moclan Traditions&quot; as bonus Focus. When you attempt a Task where that focus is applicable, you can use your Conn Discipline to determine if a roll scores two successes rather than the Discipline used to set the Target Number of the Task." compset="Talent" summary="Bonus Focus; If applicable, Conn determines if two successes on a roll.">
    <usesource source="ENT"/>
    <usesource source="TOS"/>
    <usesource source="TNG"/>
    <tag group="TalentCat" tag="Racial"/>
    <bootstrap thing="foCustom">
      <assignval field="domDomain" value="Moclan Traditions"/>
      </bootstrap>
    <eval phase="PreAbility" priority="1000">
	#resmax[resFocus] += 1</eval>
    <exprreq message="Moclan required"><![CDATA[#isspecies[spcHuman] <> 0]]></exprreq>
    </thing>
Replace the usesource entry with whatever source for the Orville info.

The #resmax line is the one that adds the additional Focus slot. The bootstrap is as if you went and clicked the add focus on the tab and selected Custom Focus then entered Moclan Traditions in the domain entry.

Does that help?
