Broken Tribune trait

Hello,

In my roman campaign, it seems that my plebeian FMs do not have the trait "Eligible for Plebeian Tribune" anymore. I have an old Consul who has the traits "Ex tribune" and "Sacrosanctitas" so it definetely worked before. I believe I might have made a mistake in the files or editing the EDCT unintentionally.

Here's what I have in the files. As you can see, there is no mention of the first trait, the one that trigger the eligibility.

         EffectsDescription Ex_PlebeianTribune_effects_desc
         Threshold 2

         Effect Unrest  -1

What should I add there ?

No one to tell me what they find at this place in their own EDCT ?

That's the trait; you need to find the trigger, which is the second half of the file.

Thanks for your answer Quintus. I gave a look to EDCT again and, while there is several entries around that PlebeianTribune trait (such as AgressiveTribune or the one that removes it), none of them seems to add the "Eligible_PlebeianTribune". But maybe that is not how it works. Where should I look to find the trigger ?

These are the triggers associated with the trait:

Alright, since I also had this in the files I tried a new campaign to figure out if it was my game or my save.
I took Mr. Regvlvs and removed its Ex_PlebeianTribune trait. Then I moved him to Roma and wait til winter. Happily, he was not elected Praetor but Tribunus Plebis... so the trait works.

But isn't it supposed to exist a "Eligible for..." trait for the player to be aware that he needs to move his FM to the capital ?
While I am sure I saw it before, now I'm in doubts...

Anyway, thanks for helping me with this Quintus.

There isn't an "Eligible for..." trait for the Plebian Tribune. All the other positions on the cursus honorum have one, but that doesn't.

It would be the Threshold 1 level of the trait, if that were the case. That's the way the others are done.
