Education and Squalor

[Phil of Loreauville]

Just a quick question as far as buildings go.
What buildings contribute to the decrease of squalor and what buildings help trigger or add to a character's retinue or traits?
And specifically, what would improve the chances of your characters receiving architects?

[Tears of Destiny]

To answer the first part, Squalor is decreased by Law. So City Councils, Tiown Halls, certain Militia buildings bill do this.

[k/t]

Isn't it decreased by Public Health? Some of the bigger churches and the town halls give that.

Here are some links I saved:

Wow, thanks k/t. I'll have to set aside some time to go through those.

Just one thing.
Are those guides the same for Stainless Steel? Or does SS change things?

[k/t]

I think some might be for SS.

In export_descr_ancillaries I found this:


Trigger architect_vnv_trigger
WhenToTest GovernorBuildingCompleted

AcquireAncillary architect chance 3


From export_descr_character_traits:

That also gives -squalor.

[Phil of Loreauville]

I think some might be for SS.

Does Stainless Steel add all the titles like Stratagos of Rodos, Seal of the Emperor and Protosecrets, or does RC/RR do that?

Is there something that deciphers the export_descr_ancillaries file?


From what I've read, You get have a 3% chance to get an Architect after anything is completed.

[Tears of Destiny]

No, public health givres raw population bonus, one half percent of population per 5 percent health bonus. Law decreases squalor.

Of course, they do other things as tell...
