I've noticed that when I craft wands with Arcane spells I've been given from taking a specific domain, those wands are no longer usable by clerics, paladins and rangers. That used to be the case from not long ago.

That used to be the case from not long ago. Sorry, but there's no quick and easy fix for this right now either. In short, domain spells are not supported in the revised Bioware Scribe/Brew/Craft Wand System we use here.

I'm guessing this is a recent update? The list of Domain spells isn't very long. I'm no scripter, but shouldn't it be possible to check the spell cast and check if the caster is a druid/clerc/ranger/paladin and then make the wand usable by those classes? I know it takes time, so could you perhaps put it on the famous to-do-list? The list is here: nwn.wikia.com/wiki/Domain

I know it takes time, so could you perhaps put it on the famous to-do-list? The list is here: nwn.wikia.com/wiki/DomainThe problem as I see it is that just because a spell is granted via a certain domain that it doesn't mean clerics of -other- alignments and faiths should be able to use that wand too. In default versions of the Bioware Wand Crafting arcane spell wands were only usable by wizards, sorcerers and bards, even if crafted by a cleric or ranger at times. Divine spells were usable by rangers, paladins, clerics and druids only even if a wizard could normally cast them. So odds are, the wands that hold arcane spells never worked for clerics here prior to our own changes. Last year when we did a hak update, we made custom versions of many scrolls so that they reflected the actual classes that can normally cast those spells and fixed many discrepencies. Later, with a scripting update, we set wands to only be usable by classes normally able to cast the same spells from memory. There is no easy way to block wand usage (or scrolls either) based on domains. It could be worked around, but would entail alot of additional scripting with little benefit for the resources expended (both module resources and RL time involved). Once I have the latest crafting updates ready, I can look into options for domains spells to create -other- types of items instead.
