Race Builder: feat pre-requisites

[Grand Moff Vixen]

Here is my quandary. I have been building a race that I intend to have both the reptilian and human subtypes. In adding the human subtype, though, I notice that the custom race still does not qualify for feats that are human, just the general ones. Now, I know I can add the feat regardless of the warning/s, my problem is that I want to filter by human and turn on only valid selections.

Basically, I want to see which feats the race qualifies for. If I add the human subtype I should qualify as human for all feats requiring it, but it apparently does not work that way. Why is this?

The feats check for the HasRace.rHuman tag which it doesn't appear the Race Builder is capable of adding that tag to the race. You'd have to go through the actual editor and select the "Counts as" box and add human to it.

Human subtype is a not the "race" Human. Just to another voice to what Andrew is saying. So I can be a Outsider (Human) by the rules but that does not make me the Human race.

Its confusing the wording Pathfinder choose for some stuff...

Well the wording is a carry over from 3.5, but still confusing none-the-less. It's what happens when your primary focus is backwards compatibility.

Thanks for the info. It is indeed bemusing at times.
