Pathfinder 2 Skill question

So creating a Goblin Street Urchin Rogue(thief) I have issues with skills... it seems Thievery is trained from two choices...I get a blue error at the bottom that says

Thievery: More than one option has made this skill trained (Street Urchin, Thief)

But I can not seem to change it or effect it?

Core Rule book page Page 233
"Sometimes you might gain training in a specific skill from multiple sources, such as if your background granted training in Crafting and you took the alchemist class, which also grants training in Crafting. Each time after the
first that you would gain the trained proficiency rank in a given skill, you instead allocate the trained proficiency to any other skill of your choice."

So I should be able to chose another skill but there are no boxes available in the row with under Street Urchin (which still says I have one choice left). So am I doing something wrong? or should I be able to choose a different skill?
 
Still having issue....

So am I missing something? I can actually complete a character due to this is issue...Is it a bug? Should I log a a ticket?

I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction
 
It should probably give you an extra choice somewhere, so I'd log it as a bug. It won't stop you from completing your character; just pick an extra trained skill on the Skills page. You'll get a warning about having too many skills, but you can ignore it.

Bug submitted
 
Another issue with training skills: if you choose to use a skill increase to train a previously untrained skill (instead or raising proficiency level), you get an error as if you had trained too many skills with your class.

One other thing: did you add a location-based Lore skill to your list via the Skills page? (Absalom Lore, for example.) That's the second type of skill you get from Street Urchin.

I got to play with it more last night and rediscover how it works. :)

The whole page seems messed up...I tried added location based Lore...there are no boxes to select anything under your background.

Seems like they were not quite ready for launch....

Also the UI ends up being really slow....and failing half the time. Not really excited about this purchase right now. Hopefully they can get it squared away quickly now that GenCon is over

Use the [+] button on the Skills page to add any skills you need. Then you can check them in the column for Street Urchin.
 
Well this problem was fixed but....

So today when creating a character Iam getting the issue again where I can not pick my background skill...the check boxes are not even there...Human, Nomad, Barbarian was the class...but I looked my Rogue and Fighter have the same issue.

I did log another bug but is anyone else seeing this issue?
 
Am I missing something? At lvl 3 can't seem to select new skills to be trained in or select an existing trained skill to become expert in.
Will raise a bug report if it's a a bug but wanted to check I'm not crazy first...



Edit. OK found it, need to click on the "+" next to the skill!

I can't reproduce either of the issues you're seeing. Maybe they've been fixed? Are you positive you're adding the Lore skills to the skills list so you can choose them?

For Street Urchin, the Lore skill has to be from the city you are from—unfortunately, that list only contains Absalom and Magnimar right now. Hopefully with the Lost Omens World Guide they'll populate that list with a lot more cities. There are a few more cities mentioned in passing in the Core Rulebook that aren't listed in the Lore skill.

It looks like Other Lore (and you can customize the name for your city of origin) counts as an option for Street Urchin, so it's assuming that might be a city. I'd rather see an option to set the category for the Other skill, so you could explicitly say that it's a settlement and limit Street Urchin correctly.
