I am working on a system where certain abilities have 0 or more "Concentration" components associated with them (in gizmos).
a) Ability 1 might have A, B, C concentrations, and Ability 2 might have D, E concentrations.
b) The character selects a Background, which is component="Background" and includes the UserSelect component as part of the Background compset.
c) Each background provides the hero with a choice of a Concentration from several.
- Background B would provide either the Concentration B or Concentration E.
Each background uses an agent tab with:
The selected Background has:
the menu portal is:
However, no matter what value I have for usrSource1 (0, 1 or 2), menu1 shows "Nothing to choose from". Only if I manually add Occult or Theology concentration to the Ability, will it then show up in the menu.
An I missing something to be able to choose one of the Concentrations and have it add to the associated Ability?
