Animate Dead - Upcasting is currently bugged

[Moburo]

Fellow necromancers! BEWARE!

You can't upcast Animate Dead right now.

Checked on multiple saves, on mutliple characters nad even asked friend to check as well.
When you try to upcast it, game slaps your hand, and switches back to basic 3rd lvl of casting and refuses to budge.

Other spells work fine.

Noteworthy thing:
icon of 4th lvl lacks the tiny arrow at the top that symbolzies upcasting, as if the spell otpion of being ucpasted has been turned off.

just tried to use necromancy for the first time and this happens :(

Necro main says "OOF!"

There is a work around. It works for me anyway. You can find it when you search through the dicussions "animate dead". I posted it twice. No necromancer should wander alone. Bro code activated.

Can confirm that this is bugged out. The good news is that there is a equal buggy workaround.

Steps are as follows:
1) Click the level 4 spell slot
2) Click Animate Dead
3) Choose undead of your choice
4) Click the level 4 spell slot again

This causes the spell to be ready to be cast with a menu that asks you to select the undead selection again. Ignore that menu and just start casting anyways.

This patch 5 Fixes the bug :)

It bloody doesn't. Gale is my necromancer, I'm in the mindflayer tunnels, and I can't summon 4 zombies at all. I think it's a space thing.
