0.73 Beta Traits and Ancillaries Bugs, Issues, and Problems

Just out of curiosity, what is the name of the file I would need to open to change this. Traits aren't something I've ever messed with at all, so I'm not sure what file I'm looking for.

Sorry about that. I've edited my previous post to include that useful information. (Randomly searching files for could_not_compete might take a while!)

Thanks for the help, although the KH may be dead pretty soon in my campaign . Nice work on the traits by the way, I was playing as the Getai and got owned by the enslaves own people trait, I'll remember not to do that again.

I have had a bit of a problem with the Triumph 'sub-missions' in my Roman campaign - I'm trying to see if Blasio can get his before he shuffles off this mortal coil.

This is actually a suggestion, but I thought I'd post it here instead of making a new thread. If inappropriate, I'll make a thread.

The new ambassador trait diplomats get is great. I was thinking of having bonuses for the longer they are an ambassador. As in, if they're in there for 5 years, after they leave, they don't lose all the bonus influence. Maybe a "Was ambassador for 5 years", has dealt with a lot of diplomatic jibber jabber, experienced. Things along these lines. There could be different levels of it, 5 years, 10 years, and anything else the wonderful team comes up with that has to do with this general idea.

What unit size are you playing on? Unless it's huge, the number of enemies should be good. What kind of victories are you getting? Clear? Heroic?

Ok, I think I see what the problem is. I made the conditions more stringent than I had intended. Do a search for "Trigger Imperator_granted" in Data\export_descr_character_traits.txt and change "and Trait Battlepoints > 3" to "and Trait Battlepoints > 2" each time you find it (there should be 8 triggers). The "3" requires the odds to be against the general, which wasn't the intent.

How about just using the existing suggestions thread?

I might miss it if you put it in a thread by itself.

Will do, sorry. As for this one, since it's already here and you've seen it, I'll just let it be.

"Normal" I think - my hastati/principes/triarii are 40/41/42.

Getting mostly Heroic victories for these really big battles, I think I got one Clear because I got confused about who the reinforcer was and managed to botch my dispositions very very badly...

Cheers for that! Not in time for poor old Blasio but perhaps for my new crop of warmongers?

Is passing the titles down to your son (the trait, not the cognomen change) a feature or a bug?
