Bootstrapping - Special that bootstraps feat

[TCArknight]

An issue I'm running into:

I've got the Occupation feat bootstrapping the Adventurer special if the User.OccAdvent tag is present on the hero.

This works fine until I add a bootstrap to the Adventurer special to provide a choice of bonus feats. With this code -

  <thing id="fOccupatn" name="Occupation" compset="Feat" uniqueness="unique">
    <fieldval field="ftCandExpr" value="User.Occupat"/>
    <usesource source="srcD20Mod"/>
    <tag group="fCategory" tag="catOcc" name="Occupation"/>
    <tag group="User" tag="OccAdven" name="Occupation - Adventurer"/>
    <bootstrap thing="xOccAdven">
      <containerreq phase="PreLevel" priority="10000"><![CDATA[User.OccAdven >= 1]]>
        <after name="Add Occupation"/>
        </containerreq>
      </bootstrap>
    <eval phase="PreLevel" priority="5000" name="Add Occupation"><![CDATA[       doneif (compare(field[fChosen].chosen.field[name].text,"") = 0)

       ~get the chosen occupation and store it in a variable
       var Choice1 as string
       var C1Len as number
       var C1thing as string
       var result as number       

       Choice1 = field[fChosen].chosen.field[name].text
       C1thing = field[fChosen].chosen.idstring
       C1Len = length(C1thing) - 1
       C1thing = "User." & right(C1thing,C1Len)
       perform hero.assignstr[C1thing]]]></eval>
    </thing>

  <thing id="xOccAdven" name="Adventurer" compset="Special">
    <usesource source="srcD20Mod"/>
    <tag group="User" tag="Occupat" name="Occupation"/>
    <tag group="Helper" tag="ShowSpec"/>
    <bootstrap thing="fAdvBonus"></bootstrap>
    </thing>

I get -

Condition test for thing 'xOccAdven' (PreLevel/10000) is after its bootstraps (PreLevel/10000)

Any suggestions?

Bootstraps need to be established before the timing mechanisms begin, since they'll have their own timings.

In this thread on the Pathfinder forum, I walked someone through the next best solution - adding bonus feats, and making sure those slots were filled with the correct type of feat:
