Having some trouble figuring this one out.
I'm doing a ruleset for Qin the Warring States. Weapon skills can have combat techniques associated with them, but they are not required.
So, I have an entity defined that I attach to weapon skills as gizmos, and the pick template in the skills tab has an edit action button associated with it. I also have a form which includes the Combat Technique compset. Everything is working as it should except for the fact that when the a skill is added to the skill tab, the form to choose a combat technique automatically pops up. If I cancel out of the form without picking a combat technique, the Skill pick is deleted after the combat technique form closes.
If I select a combat technique, everything works fine. My question is: can I change the behavior whereby the Combat Technique form appears automatically when the Skill pick (which has the gizmo) is picked? Ideally, I'd like to be able to add a Skill pick without the combat technique form coming up automatically.
Thanks in advance!
