So, I am attempting to making a skill-book for the already implemented skill summon cat. I know that this is a in game quest where whomever the cat first sees will follow and if you lead the cat to outside fort Joy you will get the skill. In my game I am playing with 4 friends and when we went into the castle the cat got killed but we were not aware of this-now to get this skill we would have to retcon about 6 hours worth of game play. I also thought it would be beneficial in single player or in game if a certain person wanted the spell and the cat is following the 'wrong' person.

Now so far I have followed the guides on larian for making a custom skill as well as their online videos here are my attempts and issues so far.

-Attempted to make the skill using the 'lighting bolt' template-found as they were a different skill entirely method was unsuccessful.

-Found that there is an in game 'Summon Cat' scroll attempted to place that and a blank spell book to create in game however skill-book does not exist thus could not be combined.

-Attempted to follow Larian's guide for 'lighting bolt' but with a summon skill-book Ethereal, unfortunately it seems that the GUI is locked in and cannot be changed or altered in anyway-even though I renamed the book and tried to link it to the skill using the skill just used the original skill Ethereal

I'm not sure what else to try other then attempting to build a skill-book from scratch from a blank one but I'm unsure if that would be successful-I feel like though knowing how to do this would be beneficial for anyone else trying to make custom summon skill books.

This is my first attempt in modding if anyone has been able to do something successful or can assist me in some way I would be very grateful.
