Monk AC Bootstrap

[Quintain]

Can anyone advise on how to bootstrap the Monk AC ability (Wisdom bonus to AC and CMD + 1 per 4 levels) so that classes other than the monk can benefit from this ability?

I've tried duplicating the original ability, but the changes don't seem to apply.

Timing is: Post-Attributes 10000 and After Encumber Final
Script is below:

      var bonus as number
      bonus = field[xIndex].value - 1
      field[listname].text = "AC Bonus +" & bonus

      ~ Get our encumbrance level - if we're encumbered by that, or if we're
      ~ wearing armor or a shield, we're disabled.
      if (hero.tagis[Encumbered.Light] = 0) then
        perform assign[Helper.SpcDisable]
        done
        endif

      ~ only run the rest for the first copy
      doneif (tagis[Helper.FirstCopy] = 0)

      ~ If we're not shown, just get out now
      doneif (tagis[Helper.ShowSpec] = 0)

      ~ Start our bonus off as our wisdom bonus + the count of specials, -1 
      ~ (because our first instance gives a base of +0)
      field[abValue].value += #attrbonus[aWIS] + field[xCount].value - 1

      field[livename].text = "AC Bonus +" & field[abValue].value

      ~ If we're disabled, do nothing
      doneif (tagis[Helper.SpcDisable] <> 0)

      ~ Apply our AC bonus to all our armor scores
      hero.child[ArmorClass].field[Bonus].value+= field[abValue].value

Why can't you just bootstrap the Class Special Thing to your new class? I am pretty sure nothing in the script is specific to monks.

I tried that. It didn't work. So, as an alternative, I created another class special to try to duplicate it. Not working there either.

What's not working is the +1 to AC/CMD for every 4 levels. It's assigning per the wisdom bonus, not anything else.

Did you bootstrap it again at level 4,8,12? Otherwise true it won't do anything as it will only be set to happen once. That is what "field[xCount].value" is doing counting the number of times its active on the hero. If one time you will only be treated as once.

Ah, no I didn't. That would likely be it.
