I am trying to homebrew a feat that will grant resistance to a damage type of choice when selected (pick made when the feat is taken)
I don't see how to do that; I can easily hard code a resistance to the feat, but cannot seem to find how to make a dropdown when the feat is selected (similar to how certain feats allow you to pick a spell when selected)
Is there a tutorial that shows that portion, or no??
There isn't a specific "Select Resistance" modifier like for "Select a Proficiency", but what you could do is add an Option to the feat for each resistance type you want to grant access to, and then they'll have those options in a dropdown list. (Make sure the feat's Basic Information has the value 1 for "Total Number of Feat Options User Can Select".)

That isn’t possible currently, that’s why feats like Resilient and Magic Initiate etc. had to be programmed as a series of individual feats even though they aren’t sposta be.

Ahh, you're right... Options only give you access to Actions, not Modifiers.
The Elemental Adept feat(s) are another example of the kind of implementation Sposta is referring to.
It's 2023 and there is still no option. So, what I did for the new Epic Boons, and what I'll have my players do, is select their 2 elements and have them pick up items (that I already made a while ago) that grant that resistance. They just have to remember to swap them when applicable.
It's the only way they'll remember that they have that feature and to use it.
