Help with Custom Spell List

[Dianae]

Did that, had had it on the Class Level tab, not the Class tab.

Attempt to access field 'cSpellExpr' that does not exist for thing 'cDFRbyMg'
Location: 'eval' script for Thing 'cDFRbyMg' (Eval Script '#1') near line 1

I try to add it as a field as a work around and nada.

I know I must be missing something so basic, but I swear my brain just is not figuring it out.

It looks like you still have the script on the Class Level Thing not the Class Thing. So its telling you that the field cSpellExpr does not exist on the Class Level thing.

I know I put it on the class tab, can't remember right now if I removed it from the class level tab. Can't check right now, but hopefully that is the source of my headache, but now that you mention it, it makes 100% sense.

As I said, it's the little things.

It gets easier. You just have to stick it out during the initial learning process.

Okay, got home and tested it, and you were right in where the error was, then I had a different problem.

Wrong spell list.

Removed all "uses spell list" options - No spells at all.

Entered in Spells Known per level and reset magic type to "Bard (Spontanteous)", (had tried spell book based, so didn't think spells known were needed.)
**** Critical flaw in my Thinking and properly forehead smacking "d'oh" moment****

And Viola! I have my spell list set up now.

*cheers*

As I said, Little things that escape logic bombs.

Lessons learned:

1. Never try and learn new coding complications when half awake.
2. Always look over the "Of course I did that." fields.

Next Hurdle:

Removing the Rejuvenate Eidolon Spell chain.

So, I try changing the eval script to add an exclusion of the specific spells, by

field[cSpellExpr].text = "(sClass.cHelpMag & !(sSchool.Divination | sSchool.Illusion | sSchool.Enchant)) | (sSchool.Conjur & sSubschool.Healing & (ClsDenySp.spLifeCon1 | ClsDenySp.spRejuEid1 | ClsDenySp.spLeResEi2 | ClsDenySp.spLifeCon3 | ClsDenySp.spRejuEid3 | ClsDenySp.spRestEid3 | ClsDenySp.spPuriCal4 | ClsDenySp.spGrLifCo5 | ClsDenySp.spRejuEid5)) & !Helper.Obsolete"

My thought was that ClsDenySP would be my ticket, but I get this error

Hero Lab was forced to stop compilation after the following errors were detected:

Syntax error in 'eval' script for Thing 'cHelpRBM' (Eval Script '#2') on line 1
  -> Non-existent field 'ClsDenySp' used by script

Back to the starting board....

I next try just putting the spells in as !(spSpell1 | spSpell2 | etc...) In various positions in the previous expression.

field[cSpellExpr].text = "!(spLifeCon1 | spRejuEid1 | spLeResEi2 | spLifeCon3 | spRejuEid3 | spRestEid3 | spPuriCal4 | spGrLifCo5 | spRejuEid5)) | (sClass.cHelpMag & !(sSchool.Divination | sSchool.Illusion | sSchool.Enchant)) | (sSchool.Conjur & sSubschool.Healing & !Helper.Obsolete"

It compiles, I go to check my spell list and I see every option under the sun, (custom scrolls and riffle scrolls?) as I close the Spell selection, I get this error

Syntax error in dynamic 'candidate' tag expression

Where am I going wrong, What am I missing, and what does Helper.Obsolete do?

[AndrewD2]

You need to assign the ClsAllowSp.? and ClsDenySp.? to the class helper, not in the spell expression.

So either just click on where it says "tags" and add "ClsDenySp.spRejeEid3" etc or make an eval script, Pre-Levels 5000

perform assign[ClsDenySp.spRejeEid3]

[Dianae]

Tried that to no effect, I think the first script to create the spell list might be overridding the Spell school selection.

[AndrewD2]

Try running it as an eval script later than you run the other script so like Final 1100

[Dianae]

Still either having no effect, or the "Syntax error in dynamic 'candidate' tag expression" with way too much on the spell list.

Since I had the problem before, I just want to be sure I putting the script on the Class thing, same as the other script? I found a rough work around by modifying the cSpellExpr to add just the Conjuration(Healing) spells from the Cleric List, since I also saw Paladin and Bard Specific Spells on the list, but that added in the level 7, 8, and 9 spells as well.
