Pathfinder 2.0 using the Paizo PF2 core rulebook, world guide, etc. When I choose a heritage for my character nothing happens. There's no box that pops up for the heritage ability for a Half-Orc or Half-elf. Doesn't add elf to my trait. Doesn't prompt for additional feats for versatile human or additional skills for skilled human. Any idea when this feature will be working? It prompts me to CHOOSE my heritage, but then apparently does nothing with it. I tried multiple ancestries and none of them did anything once I chose my heritage.

The automation for Heritage is not added as of yet. That is something that is planned for the future.

Right now you have to go to the Abilities tab and read the Rules & Abilities entries that pertain to your heritage, and add the heritage extras manually.

As @Allmight says, these are not automated. And I doubt if they ever will be 100% automated as they can be unique edge cases.

I'll add some text into the chargen tracker log in the next release to remind the user to manually apply the relevant features of the heritage.

i have a question related to ancestry, but it's more towards customizing your own heritage within your own custom ancestries.
is it possible that the Heritage option will be added to ancestries in the near future, i want to be able to add custom races and sub-races, but the heritage option isn't in there, just the base ancestry features?

Click the Heritages button at the top of the Ancestry data list.
