You need 12 more spell points to cast this spell.
is there some reason the sp cost of a spell can't be checked when typing cast?

Because you might regen enough when the chanting is done. However,
having a message that informs that at this point (when starting to cast)
you don't have enough sp to finish it might be nice.

My understanding is that those spells _do_ check when starting to cast, but
sometimes things like moon changes or such causing the spellcost to increase
while casting.

Certain spells have extra cost, like raise dead. If you have the spellpoints to
start casting spell at its base cost it allows you to start casting, but if you
don\'t have enough spell points to handle the target or what ever you are
trying, you are not allowed to do it. But hey, if you don\'t like caster, you
can always go nomad.
