Spell List

[Frodie]

Can you assign a class spell list to a custom ability?

 

[Mathias]

The Shade of the Uskwood feat from Inner Sea World guide has an example of this.

 

[Frodie]

Cool, seems to work, here is the script

perform hero.childfound[cHelpMAH].assign[sClass.cHelpWit]

 

[Frodie]

BTW - can you do the same with a school or domain spell list?

 

[Mathias]

Have you studied the effects of schools and domains? What tags are added to the class when you add those? Can you add the same tags in a script?

Oh, and

linkage[table].

will transition to whatever class added a custom class ability (it doesn't work in many places other than a custom class ability) - that can replace

hero.childfound[cHelpMAH].

so that if you want to re-use this ability for a second class, you don't have to re-work the script to figure out which of those classes it was added to.

 

[Frodie]

Yep, I don't want the custom abilities, just the spells

 

[Mathias]

When you add those custom abilities you're trying to make variants of, what tags are added to the class? You need to figure out how the thing you're trying to make a variant of functions before you can create that variant.

 

[Frodie]

Hum, basicly it's a copy of the arcane schools, (like Abjuration), and insted of the special abilities, I want it add to the spellcaster known spells, from Abjuration type

 

[Frodie]

I tried:
perform hero.childfound[cHelpMAH].assign[sSchool.ssAbjur]
but that did not work

 

[Mathias]

Are you familiar with the Red Mantis Assassin prestige class? I think that may have an Eval Script that's what you're looking for.

 

[Frodie]

It looks like it would work, but the error I get is

Attempt to access field 'cSpellExpr' that does not exist for thing 'cMPAAbjura'

 

[Mathias]

cSpellExpr is only on classes, not on custom abilities.

 

[Frodie]

So no way to get it to work in a custom ability?

 

[Mathias]

hero.childfound[cHelpMAH].field[cSpellExpr].text

 

[Frodie]

Still getting the same error the script is:

hero.childfound[cHelpMAH].field[cSpellExpr].text = "(" & field[cSpellExpr].text & ") | ((sClass.cHelpSor | sClass.cHelpWiz) & (sSchool.Illusion | sSchool.Transmutat))"

BTW - Thank you

 

[Mathias]

There are two instances of field[cSpellExpr].text - you have to change them both.

 

[Frodie]

That is it:

hero.childfound[cHelpMAH].field[cSpellExpr].text = "(" & hero.childfound[cHelpMAH].field[cSpellExpr].text & ") | ((sClass.cHelpSor | sClass.cHelpWiz) & (sSchool.Illusion | sSchool.Transmutat))"

Thank You!

 

[Frodie]

BTW - what are the script name for: Abjuration, Conjuration, and Enchantment. I think the name is too long and I get an error. All the other schools work great, Thank you again.

 

[Frodie]

never mind I found them, thank you anyways.
