Epic Magic "Celestial Gold"

Heya, was in the Epic spell library and tried to make a spell. When I got to the end it says "you do not have enough Celestial gold". So I try the ;;em gold ***** and it does not transfer it. Is this a current bug? I have the epic magic feat and the widget. I do not have a philosophers stone to try and zap any items. Any suggestions would be awesome.

Thanks

Hmm.. if the em gold command isn't working for you (and I've not heard of a case yet where it doesn't) that is very odd..... you can find one of the stones just outside the library near the big book, it is an automated pickup from the floor. Might have to run around a few times to trigger it..... ...

It will not work if you did not grab a Philosopher's Stone from the pile near the Statue in the first room of the library.

Yea, I was able to transfer gold after I had gotten a stone. The thing is, I tried several times and with Rustydios's help to pick up a stone and it would not allow me to. Rusty was kind enough to give me one but for some reason I was unable to find the stone myself

True this!.. I even showed him the exact spot to walk to and where from (A route that has never failed me to pick up a stone with any of my PC's)... the very same spot where seconds earlier my 14lv monk/druid had just picked one up from ?!?.... I doubt it is a search/spot related issue as he mentioned that his was way higher then mine.... is it possible because he was levitating ?... or because I just picked one up and its once/reset ?... either way he told me he had been looking all over the library area before my arrival and was yet to find one ?.... I show up, show him the spot to walk (and in so doing pick one up myself!) and he never got one walking the exact same route... he may have been using WASD to move but the movements didn't look like jumpy/blocky WASD, they were fluid from mouse click... ...

We tried retracing the route several times before I gave in and handed over the one I just picked up .... .... ...

Maybe it's set to be once per reset ... a few other things used to be that way, until we pestered enough that he changed them for us ... perhaps a look is warranted, eh?

I thought I had changed that a long time ago, but evidently the trigger is still there and the change I was going to make...wasn't made.

Anyway, after the next module update, the philosophers' stone will be given when a caster gains the Epic Magic feat, just like with the "casting widget" item.

Existing casters should be able to get one just walking through the trigger that I'll leave in place. It should just be once per PC, not once per reset, and the trigger forms an arc around the doorway that opens in the corner (so you have to walk through it to get into the research chamber). It's a basic Search check with a DC of 1.
