Ability tree

Hello all. I'm starting to mod my first fft iso, and I need a little help.

How do I edit the ability tree of the characters. For example, I want to add a black mage in some random battle, and I want this black mage to have "fire", "bolt", "ice" and "frog", for example. How can I do that?

In the FFTPatcher, I can only choose his primary/secondary skills and etc, but I don't know how to edit the abilities of each job.

Please, help!!

Thank you very much!

PS: I'm still starting.

You can't really choose specific skills that easily from their regular Job tree. IIRC, you'd have to give them a custom second skillset with those abilities if you wanted to guarantee it - I believe a non-standard second skillset is auto-mastered, though don't quote me on that :P

For standard/base Jobs, AI skill acquisition is done by having the AI start at the top, check the learn %, attempt to learn the first skill if they passed that % and have the JP, repeating all the way down the list. For that reason, the first skills are much more likely to be learned, just because that's where the AI has the most JP.
