Re: uncastable spell scripting (and can the AI cast newly researched spells?)
 

Yes, I agree that it might be more likely to get implemented. In fact, it already is, you *can* get the spellbook with absolutely everything, there's just no hotkey for it.

How do you do that then?

Re: uncastable spell scripting (and can the AI cast newly researched spells?)
 

Oh, I meant programming-wise, there is usually already support implemented for a wildcard where a search parameter is being used. This is not used in-game yet to be able to cast from a full spellbook, though, no.

Re: uncastable spell scripting (and can the AI cast newly researched spells?)
 

Yeah, a "see-all" button would be great. That would solve the problem. I'm assuming that is fairly hard to implement though, or it would have been done already.

The moral of the current WAD is: always have your research 1 turn ahead of what you need. :D
