Racial Ability

[Manalishi66]

Trying to add the followng racial ability...

Mechanical Genius
At first level, Boggles gain an additional skill rank and a +2 racial bonus to skill rolls which they must apply to one of the following: Knowledge (engineering), Profession (engineering), Craft (any), Disable Device, or Use Magical Device. These skills are always considered class skills for a boggle.

I can not figure out how to limit the list to just the listed skills above. It just shows all. How do you limit it. What script is missing?

Pre-level, 10000


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

#applybonus[Bonus, field[usrChosen1].chosen, 2]
perform forward[ClassSkill.?]

What I got works, but I do not know how to limit the list to just the skills I want?

You have to build your own "Custom Expression" instead of taking the default "Select From..." that is built for you.


For this you would start with the "component.?" tag which is BaseSkill. Then include the "thingid" for each skill except "craft". For craft skills they carry "Helper" tags that defines the whole group (ie each Craft skill gets the same generic tag).

With "expressions" the basic logic is & = "and" and | = "or". Then it also understands ( ) which allow you to wrap say a bunch of "or" conditions together.

Put this all together and you get:

component.BaseSkill & (thingid.skKnowEng|thingid.skProfEngi|thingid.skDisable|thingid.skUseMagic|Helper.SkCatCraft)
