HOTFIX - several correction to broken trait mechanics

**V.T. Marvin** · September 16, 2014, 02:08 PM

With sincere apology for several broken trait mechanics I am presenting a quick hotfix that should hopefully resolve several of the most annoying ones:
- corrected "ComesOfAge" primary trait triggers
- removed "Starving" period for uninitialized characters
- Spoils of Victory traits no longer suffer from anti-trait bug
- Agoge and Olympics temporarily inactivated because of the anti-trait bug until proper implementation is made
- triggers for Bad Disciplinarian trait containing broken "PercentageRoutedOffField" condition removed
- Indecisive attacker trait no longer gained during sieges

export_descr_character_traits.zip

How to apply:
- download the file and unzip it into your ...\mods\EBII\data folder to overwrite existing "export_descr_character_traits.txt"
- ~~it should be save-game compatible (but no guarantee on that!)~~
EDIT: unfortunately it is not, reportedly, save-game compatible.

Sorry for the bugs - hope this helps a little!

Thank you

thanks! But it aint save game compatible, at least my ptolemaioi campaign aint working now. No worries, starting a new one right now!

Good to see it now! I was about to continue my play. I will restart the campaing. Just capture one city so far, anyway.

Thanks!

What about FM loyalty? On multiple occasions I've had FMs go turncoat the first turn outside of a city (and they are still in my territory).

No accross the board changes to loyalty made here - it seems fairly balanced to me so far. Turncoat generals are supposed to happen from time to time, especially if your faction is overly large or if your FL has low authority (namely in the transition period from one ruler to the next).

Great, thank you!

I can confirm it's not savegame compatible.

My savegame worked just fine.

Although it was very early in the campiagn, less than 50 turns I think.

If anyone else is, like me, waiting to finish a current game before putting this hotfix, could I ask you also try my light_spear and javelineer EDU tweak as well?

It should do two things: make secondary-spear-users keep their formations properly, and hopefully make javelineer skirmishers behave properly (and actually throw their missiles).
