    Ok, pretty basic question here: I've opened up the spells library and added myself a new cure light wounds spell. How do I actually use it in a game? If I add cure light wounds as a spell for a PC, when they try to cast it, the familiar casting dialog pops up, but the effect is "inert", and if I click that, I get what looks like the basic spell template flow. I don't see any way to load my previously saved spell, nor to just have the PC's cure light wounds activate that spell without any intervention from me.

    I feel like I must be missing something obvious...

    The spell has to be added to the class, in classes.txt, or cast from the freeform list by adding the spell to spells.txt

    If the spell is in the classes text, the name on the flow needs to match what is in the classes text.

    Ok, got it working. Thanks.

    I assume that at some point in the near future the new spell system will be integrated fully into the game so that I and my players don't have to create each spell by hand? We're using Pathfinder rules, if that makes any difference.

    There will be rulesets available for purchase, so you do not have to build everything yourself. We don't currently have a release date for those at this time.
