"Invisible" feats discovery

[Lawful_g]

So I notice that if I make a new feat by Copying the Druid Weapon Proficiency feat, it doesn't show up as a selection when you hit the add feat button. It's possible this is the case for other Class Weapon Proficiency Feats. I have a question.

This is awesomely useful, because there are many custom abilities, or class abilities that require the User to enter something... like the spell that class ability affects, or something... but Specials, Custom Abilities, and Class abilities have no selection ability, but feats do. So, I wanted to know if the "feat not showing up thing" is intentional, and if it is going to stay that way?

If so, I can go back and change all the Special feats I have made for various class abilities etc, into clones of the Druid Weapon Proficiency feat, thus eliminating clutter on my feats selection window. If it isn't going to stay that way, will you be adding the ability to have other things make selections through the editor?

Since I believe you have a little experience in editing the raw XML with a text editor, it's because the Druid Weapon Proficiency feat has the Helper.Helper tag - in almost every list in the program, that tag makes something not selectable by the user.

If you want to edit the XML, you can add the line:

<tag group="Helper" tag="Helper"/>

To each of the feats you want hidden, and save yourself the work of re-creating them.

I do want to add selection options to more things than feats, but it will be a while before I get the time to do that.

Awesome, thanks. That'll save me a bit of copying and pasting.
