Summary: Lock Int bonus Languages to 1st level value

Initial Comment:
The "Allow Selection of Int bonus Languages after 1st
level" House Rule is enabld by default.

The RSRD is clear that this is not the expected behaviour.
Quoting the RSRD - Basics and Ability Scores
"You apply your character's Intelligence modifier to:
• The number of languages your character knows at the
start of the game."

Perhaps as a longer term change we can change the code
to lock the number of languages to what was due given
the int as it was at first level. I am pretty sure we
have the info to be able to determine that now.

Cheers,
James.

That would be very nice, James. As a DM, I've had to go
back and fix NPCs by editing the PCG because I forgot
to do so at my first sit-down on developing the
character (modifications to an NPC once I've got the
whole encounter and linked encounters are when I find
that usually)

Data changes made. James, with your changes the house rule should be
changed 
so it will allow additional languages if INT increases and the selection
of 
languages should be available at any time either way.

Opened a data tracker to set the rule back to OFF:

[ 1510320 ] Bonus Languages House Rule incorrectly set to ON
<http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?
func=detail&aid=1510320&group_id=25576&atid=750091>

We should also add a tip to the tips.lst to explain this.

Maybe we should make it two trackers, one Data bug to fix
rules.lst as a near term solution. The other as a code Freq.

Well that's more of a code freq then, and won't go in for
5.10..  I'll shift it over there though - K

OK, it's in the rules.lst for the gamemode, I'll pass this
onto Data
