An issue with Spell Pre Reqs
So either I missed something or the GCA is not correctly applying a single school magery advantage with a chosen spell. I made sure to apply the restriction to the scaleable version of magery so that shouldn't be the issue. I'd include screenshots, but there appears to be no option for that.
I applied the single college limitation to Magery!, but Beast Soother displays an odd issue where it both negates and adds magery. It then flags itself as not meeting the prerequisites. Oddly enough if I remove the single college limitation there is no issue. I have tried also tried using the other version of Single College (as there are two - 1 with a picklist and one without), as well as applying the limitation to both version of magery and even just magery 0 in case I misunderstood something. Each instance caused the same issue. My guess is the GCA is not correctly associating College with Category for spells. Any help/ideas would be most welcome. - Marshall |

Re: An issue with Spell Pre Reqs
I tried to reproduce this, but I wasn't able, so here's what I did.
I loaded Basic Set and Magic. Created a new character. Added Beast-Soother (and got its prereqs as well). All spells are level 8 because I have no Magery and IQ 10. I added Magery. I got it and Magery 0. All my spells are now Level 9. On Magery, I added the One College Only (%College%) modifier, picked Animal, and got One College Only (Animal) as the modifier applied. My Magery now costs 6. Beast-Soother is now level 9, the other spells are now level 8, and no longer blue (indicating they're not receiving any bonuses). Adding Fish Control, it gets added at 9, getting the bonus. Adding Purify Air, it gets added at 8, getting no bonus. All is working correctly. Could you perhaps tell me what is different about what you did, that this doesn't work the same for you? Are you loading different or alternative files, custom data, anything like that?

Re: An issue with Spell Pre Reqs
What does the exclamation mark mean there? There is no advantage called "Magery!", nor a skill, AFAIK.
