You would have to set the Value field in the bootstrap. Typically, the Value is the level of the spell, so it shouldn't matter that it's for a Fang Dragon. That said, there is usually a default so I'm not sure why it wouldn't be showing up without being able to see it.

I'm not sure that would work because some age categories have the same size. Would have to look at each dragon individually to see if any get different spell-like abilities at different age categories but have the same size.

I think that it also has something to do with the age category and timing. But haven't been able to really look into it yet.

Ok. Taking a look at the Red Dragon, there's a field we can use. Maybe you suggested this earlier, but you can set the spell-like ability special's Value field equal to the Age Category:

field[Value].value = hero.child[xAgeCat].field[Value].value

Then set your bootstrap condition to the Value field.

Sorry. I read your initial comment too quickly. The caster level of the Dragon is either the Age Category or its Sorcerer level, whichever is greater. This could presumably be variable depending on the Dragon type.

I recommend you work on the Fang Dragon and send me the results before taking a stab at any other dragons just so we can make sure the process is correct before we get too far into it.

Not sure what I'm doing wrong. I have put in the script and then put this as a condition but I'm getting an error code.

field[Value].value >= 3

The error code is "Syntax error in 'bootstrap #1 condition' tag expression for Thing 'xSplAblDraFang' -> Invalid tag template specified: 'field.[Value].value'

I've tried changing the timing but still get the same. I'm wondering if it because it is in the xSplAblDraFang and not the rDraFang.

I was able to get the caster level to show correctly.

In that script I have already created a number variable for age category. I called it "agecat". Is there anyway to use that variable as a condition? Or will I need to write an if/then script to delete each sla when needed?

[Bloodwolf]

Or do I need to add a SpecSource.Dragon statement?

Try this:

fieldval:Value>=X

Also, I was a little lazy with the eval script. Should be hero.childfound not hero.child.

Variables can only be used within the script they are created in. If you need to use it elsewhere, you need to save its value in one of the Value fields.

PS. See this link written up for Pathfinder. D20 is similar to Pathfinder, but has fewer features. I found these to be helpful.
