Research: Fixing the trait bugs

[therother]

Please post possible fixes for the bugs in the triggers for various traits. For background info on some bugs already identified, please see these threads:

• Traits that are bugged in 1.2 with fixes. Part 1: Scarred, Farmer, Trader
• Would 1.2 be better with traits removed altogether?
• HA, Scarface fixes for download
• Double Combat Traits?

Bear in mind that this is a research thread - please post only fixes that you have tested yourself, or comments directly related to the feasibility of the suggested fixes. Please provide as much information as possible on: the proposed bug you are fixing, how you believe the trigger should work, what you have done to fix it, what parts of the file require editing, and so on. Also note that this is for bugs only, i.e. traits that do not work as CA intended, rather than traits you think could do with improving.

Anything not adhering to these criteria will be removed from this thread.

Eventually, the intention is to come to a consensus for solutions to the bugs, and to release a patch to implement them.
