A Guide to Ability Learning

I can't seem to get learn on recruitment to work for Terra's Magic even though I changed the values in both C0/A182 and C2/61B9. All of my other skills seem to work on recruitment, but not that one. In fact, It still gives Actor 00 Cure and Fire, even though 00 is only level 1 and is also learning SwdTech on recruit, but the other actor gets the new spells on level-up. Any idea what's happening?

*** Just checked, Celes' magic doesn't work on recruitment either, just SwdTech and Blitz. ***

I don't know what you mean by learned on recruitment but the offset you mention would only change who learn spells via a natural magic list. Technically changing the values at C0/A182 and C2/61B9 from 00 to 01 would transfer the ability to Locke. I haven't tested such a thing but I think the tutorial is good.

As for the spells, cure is learn on level 1 and fire on level 3 on Terra's list, so fire should not appear if you start the game at level 1, unless you lower the level via a RAM editor after the game started. Same thing goes for Celes with ice (level 1) and cure (level 4).

One important last thing, though I don't understand why because of a lack of code analysis but I'm not questioning the validity of the statement either:

WARNING: Each PC can only have ONE natural learning ability. So if you give Terra SwdTech, she can't have natural magic (you will have to assign it to someone else).
