Picking the right non-unique skill to modify.

[EightBitz]

I have a skill, "skKnow" that's a generic knowledge skill with the NeedDomain tag, so the player can specify the area of knowledge.

Other choices made during character creation can bootstrap this skill multiple times.

For instance, I have a "Learned" descriptor that bootstraps three instances of "skKnow". I then want an eval script on "Learned" that applies a bonus to each of the Knowledge skills that it bootstrapped, but NOT to any Knowledge skills that it has NOT bootstrapped.

Is there a simple way to do this?

Simple way would be to add a tag on the bootstrap that identifies these Specific skills. Then either a foreach loop to read only those or a base script in the skill component that only fires when that tag is present.

Actually, thanks to your tip, I can do it all within the bootstrap element. Thanks.

    <bootstrap thing="skKnow">
    	<autotag group="Descriptor" tag="DscLearned"/>
      <assignval field="trtBonus" value="1"/>
      </bootstrap>
