Using a Sorcerer Bloodline to select an ability

[scibat]

I have been coding some custom files for a Pathfinder game and am running into one snag.

One of our home-brewed sorcerer bloodlines has a bloodline power to gain a racial ability from one of three other related races. I have attempted to have these abilities selected via the usual drop down menus, but I haven't had much luck. I have also attempted to figure out if it would be doable with a configurable bootstrap, but so far, I have had little luck finding solid documentation.

It's possible that the problem is being caused by the items in question being Racial Special Abilities (ra) but I don't know if that's the case.

If anyone has any ideas or can provide some direction to more solid documentation or guides on the topic of configuring the drop down menus for choices OR configurables as a whole, I would greatly appreciate it.

What I would do, create the class special with the drop down of the abilities. Create an eval script running at first 450 that checks the value of the drop down and sets abValue to 1,2, or 3. Then bootstrap the 3 abilities to the class special and set a bootstrap condition at First 500 checking for fieldval:abValue = 1,2, or 3 as would be according to which specials would be selected in the drop down.

That's an idea! I will give it a spin in the morning once I've rested my brain. I've been coding this/learning Hero Lab coding for three days straight now!
