Missing Traits - Bizarre

[Nad]

Hi,

I've been playing around a bit with the export_descr_character_traits file to amend some of the traits and thresholds, and I'm afraid something unanticipated has happened

On the character screen, the traits for faction leader and heir, as well as ability (sharp/charismatic/vigorous etc) and personality (selfish/optimistic/loyal etc) are now missing! All other traits are there and working fine and the game plays ok, but I can no longer see the ability/personality of each family member and the faction leader and heir no longer get the relevant stat bonuses.

Now I have absolutely no idea what change has caused this - certainly it was unintentional. I'm sure it's something simple but I can't figure it out after hours of looking through the changes I made. So I would really appreciate if someone who understands the file could give me a pointer as to what setting / threshold / trait or effect has caused this.

Many thanks!

Ok, after much trial and error, I have figured out the issue. In case anyone else has a similar problem, this is the issue.

First, the lack of the relevant traits like ability, personality, combat experience and season:





The cause is the "General's compatibility with various government types" section of the character traits file. All I had done was change the spacing slightly to align the text, but that was the cause. So don't mess at all with this bit!
