Useless assesor- any tips on how to avoid it?

[hrvojej]

I also hate badtaxman, badfarmer, and badtrader vices. Not so much because of the roleplay, but rather because in a way the game penalizes you for something you could be doing right.

Another way to change this is to change the number of instances needed to advance to the next level of the trait. So, e.g. in the following code in export_descr_character_traits:

;------------------------------------------
Trait BadTaxman
    Characters family
    ExcludeCultures barbarian
    AntiTraits GoodTaxman

    Level Useless_Assessor
        Description Useless_Assessor_desc
        EffectsDescription Useless_Assessor_effects_desc
        Threshold  1 

        Effect TaxCollection -10

change threshold to 5. This means it will take 5 successful checks to advance to the first level of the trait instead of just a single one. Alter the thresholds for subsequent levels of the trait accordingly. This is another way to decrease the frequency of the trait.
