To understand Value Info Needed, check abSize. There's a field called abilValue, and this tells the program that a value is needed in this field for the Ability to work correctly. Text Info Needed has a different use that I'm not as familiar with, as it doesn't get used much in Savage Worlds.

Ok.. so would you suggest moving my existing 3(or so) racial abilities over the Racial Properties? Coming from D&D, after looking at the 4E file formats(very briefly), my mind seems to think that RaceAbility(Savage Worlds) and RaceFeat(4e) are very roughly equivalent concepts the game system, just given different names in the Herolab files and with different levels of additional properties.

Racial Abilities were named a long time ago, way before I came into the picture. I am the one who named Racial Properties, though, so issues with similarity can be laid at my feet. If you want them to use that point system they'll need to be Properties.

For what its worth, I put everything new I do in that regard in Racial Properties as a matter of course.
