Example I changeing Thunder Step to cast with Dex instead of Con; It's still showing as Con despite this, I am not sure if I am missing something or this not working, I hope I am just missing something.
I take it you are referring to the CON note under Attack/Save and HIT/DC?
This is not an indication that the spell is using your CON bonuses for an attack roll, because this spell does not involve an attack roll. This spell requires the target to make a constitution save for half damage. The type of save is dependent upon the spell description, not the casting stat.
What the changing the casting stat will change on with this spell is the spell save DC. But the Dex and Con of this character are identical, so you won’t see a difference either way. To see what I mean, try temporarily changing the Dex stat to a higher number and see what happens to the spell save DC (which is currently 10)
I can tell the spellcasting modifier has been changed because the DC is 10 (from DEX) instead of 9 (from WIS).
In order to change save type, you will have to homebrew the spell.
Except they said they were trying to change it from CON (not WIS) to DEX, as the spell in question is granted due to the character's race (a homebrew genasi race), not their class.

They did not mention it was a race feature so I just assumed since they were a spellcasting class. You are probably right though, since genasi cast with CON by default.

They mention race in the thread title, but not directly in the text.

Yep, look at that, 7th out of 17 words. I am off today.
Ah okay I see; Bummer, ah well, the spell CON hit/dc/save is still getting it's mod from DEX so that what I was aiming for, anyway thanks for the assist.
So, hmm is there no way to change the default spell cast for races... I just had a peak, and it seems so, hmm, Eeh, probs not going to come up too often anyway to be a thing.

I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to do. If you want a genasi whose racial trait casts different spells, you can homebrew a genasi race to get that. You are already using a homebrew genasi race.
If you want to change what kind of saving throw the target makes, you need to homebrew a copy of the spell, as the saving through type is related to the spell, not the race or caster stat. (e.g. wizards can cast spells that force targets to make DEX saves, CHA saves, etc...but their casting stat is INT.)
If you tell us more about what it is you want to do, we might be able to help you do that. I personally not particularly skilled at using the homebrew tools, but there are a lot of helpful folks around here--including DxJxC--who know a good bit about using the homebrew tools.

Don't make up lies about me. I barely mess with homebrew. I'm just able to figure stuff out with trial and error or by copying something official.

Sorry if I overestimated your skill; you’ve had a better handle than I on several homebrew issues raised here.
