HasSomaticComponent (spell flag)

HasSomaticComponent is an unused^[verify] spell flag which indicates whether an action or spell requires a ⁠Somatic component (i.e. a gesture with a free hand) to cast. Rules for somatic casting are not implemented in Baldur's Gate 3 and this flag appears to be unused.

In D&D 5e, spells with somatic components require a free hand or a spellcasting focus to cast. This requirement can be bypassed with the War Caster feat. Baldur's Gate 3 significantly simplifies spellcasting rules and does not consider any material or somatic components for casting. Only verbal components are still required.
