Summary: PREVAR on class level lines turned off with class prereqs.

Initial Comment:
From 
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/pcgen/message/83636

I discovered this while working on CMP data sets but 
have verified it with
the RSRD.

To replicate:
Create a 1st level human barbarian (all 10s for stats).

Check his SAs... For some reason he as Mighty Rage 
at first level. :p

It looks like the "PREVARGTEQ" are being ingnored 
from the lines:

1 
BONUS:VAR|GreaterRage|1|PREVARGTEQ:BarbRageP
owerLVL,11
1 
BONUS:VAR|TirelessRage|1|PREVARGTEQ:BarbRageP
owerLVL,17
1 
BONUS:VAR|MightyRage|1|PREVARGTEQ:BarbRageP
owerLVL,20

So at first levewl his BarbRagePowerLVL is 4 instead of 
1...

I think this one counts as a P9 since it affects a core 
class drastically. :p

Barak

Making p7 since it does affect a core class.

When the "Ignore class prereqs" option is selected, the code
does two things. It automatically passes any checks which
are made from a class, so freestanding prereqs as well as
those attached to things defined in the class lines. It also
automatically passes any PRECLASS tests. 

To my mind all it should pass is freestanding PREreqs on the
class line, as discussed below. So we need to remove both
the passing of PREREQs of things defined in the class line
as well as PRECLASS tests. Is this correct?

Cheers,
James.

at least change the preferences to override the PRExxx in
CLASS and SUBCLASS lines only, pls.

so does anyone still think this is a necessity for 5.8?

Well the class level is pretty mush a class related PRExxx 
tag. Sometime we put stuff on the class line, sometime we 
put it on the first level. It's kind of hard to make the difference.

I think we will need a FREQ here to be able to identify the 
PRExxx tags that can be ignore for class requirement and for 
feat requirement as oppose to the ones that should always 
be applied.

I guess that for 5.8, we can go with Tir suggestion though.

Oooooh, not good.

Can it just turn off PRExxx attached to the class, and the 
Subclasses?  That's all we really WANT it to override.

Ugh...that, IMO, is not a good thing. Devon, what do you 
think?

Found it.

Selecting the option to turn off class prereqs apparently turns 
off ALL prereq checking :(

None of us at the BoD meeting could reproduce this Barak, I still can't.
I'd try it with a freash install.

I thought I was pretty clear... :)

PCGen 5.8.0-RC1 (built around 3pm 03/06/05).
RSRD only
Java 1.4.2_05

Load RSRD, click new, select True Neutral, Human and 
Barbarian and click the + button to grant one level.

Flip to the abilities tab/button and see "Mighty Rage (Ex)..."

Chris,

Bryan, Eddy and I can't replicate the problem. Could you give 
some more details on what you did? Thanks.
