Is there a quick way to write your own apecial ability in SE then add it to the list?

There's the "abilities.txt" file in the text directories.

Add one in if you want, but honestly it's no easier than simply writing an ability in for every character you make.

Cannot seem to find that file?

What dir is it stored in?

ResourcesTextENabilities.txt

 

If you're using some other language, you'll use your localization there instead of the "EN" directory. I, for example am using a "custom content" folder, which mean that mine is in:

ResourcesTextCCabilities.txt

cheers.

Found it now.

Seems easy to change though. No real trouble.

If you want to do it in a way that is a bit more permanent (easy to share with others, to add, to remove, and which doesn't need to be redone whenever you upgrade to a new version of SE), you might also look at extensions/example1 in the plug-in authoring kit. It is an example that does exactly what you are asking after.

Cheers,
Chris
