Note, that none of these have been automated in the system.
As per the system guide, included in the system, abilities, traits and mystical powers that have automation behind them have a small symbol on them.
Example:

Some of these have not been automated because of the difficulties on how to handle them, as they are subjective or otherwise difficult to implement in code.

I may have expressed myself wrong here. Whenever another mystical power is "activated" the temporary corruption roll is triggered. Not so with these six. I get that the ongoing effects and such aren't critical for the character sheet or are too complicated to implement or not really necessary. But the loss of temporary corruption is essential to the magic system and even if nothing else is triggered when casting those powers, it would be nice to not have to think about the temp corruption loss when a player uses the powers.

If i may be so bold - is it complicated to add that temp corruption roll to those six powers? If i could code i would try myself, unfortunately i am a total newb when it comes to coding and scripting.

It is not difficult to trigger the temp corruption. It is the lack of additional effects you would need to explain that the GM (or player) has to perform manually

So the issue is less about code complexity (as we are not doing them for these abilities) and more "you clicked to use this mystical power, so I will add corruption, but you are on your own to make the effects"

I totally get that and understand your decision. 👍
